Dental care: This is a common complaint in pregnancy. If you haven't seen a dentist in a while it's time for a cleaning. It is safe for pregnant women to seek the dentist although dentist often require a note from the doctor. You should also brush your teeth and floss every day. Consider using mouthwash. Pregnant women often start to snore which can cause a dry mouth. Pregnant women also often get heartburn which can contribute.
