Hello everyone!! My name is Shante' and I have a few questions for those of you who have been pregnant before!! I had my period July 19 and sometime after that my bf and I had sex and the condom broke!! My period was a couple of days late this month, it came August 21 and it was lighter than usual!! My question is, I've had this weird taste in my mouth for about a week and a half now and it won't go away!! It kind of tastes like pennies or moth balls..lol..it's kind of hard to explain but I can't get rid of it..did any of you experience this?? And also, did any one have a really dry scalp during pregnancy?? Also, I've been having headaches off and on and I've been really tired!! I have an appt. Tuesday morning but I just wanted some input from women who've been through this already!! Anyway, any input or advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks so much!! 80)

It's not unusual to have a metal taste in your mouth when pg. A lot of woman have it. i had it so bad I had to constantly have gum or something in my mouth keep to cover the taste. Have you taken an HPT yet

No, I haven't taken an HPT yet!! I guess I'm afraid of the results!! This wasn't planned but if I am pregnant I would be sooo happy!! I just don't want to be disappointed I guess!! I will be either way though so I guess I will go and get one tonight!! ::sigh:: Wish me luck ladies!! 80)
