Wait: Wait. If it enlarges or becomes painful, see dentist.

Pregnancy treatment: Especially because you are pregnant, have a dentist examine you. I true blood blister will generally resolve on its own without treatment. However, there are lots of other things it might be, and some may require treatment. The fact that you are pregnant does not prevent you from getting good quality dental treatment. It's not a problem. See a dentist.

Mama Needs an Exam!: What you are seeing could be there for a few different reasons... Since you are pregnant, it could be gingivitis caused by your body's hypersensitive (protecting baby) immune system. Since hormones from pregnancy can trigger other reactions in your cells, you definitely want to have your dentist check it out right away to rule out any unwanted lesion.
