See Dentist: Best to see your Dentist for tx of toothache, and then you will need none. Your baby appreciates your concern. Good Luck.

First things first: You need to be evaluated by a dentist to determine why you have a toothache. Deep cavity? Broken filling? Dead nerve? Gum problem? Fractured tooth? Once you are diagnosed, minimally invasive treatment can be started to treat your problem. Pregnant women can be treated to help prevent more serious complications later on. Meds alone cannot fix your toothache. All the best...

Dentist first: Meds in general should be limited in pregnancy. There are relatively safe drugs. Ask OB doc while awaiting DDS appointment.
