Last pregnancy I was really bad with the brushing teeth thing, but it also subsided at some point, plus I only have to brush teeth twice a day vs heading into a bathroom a bajillion times a day. I will let you know if anything helps at all; but so far no :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-gag-every-time-i-enter-a-bathroom-psychological-morning-sickness#post-2895718 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 15:28:44 +0000 helloperidot 2895718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my God, I'm going through EXACTLY the same thing. Every time I get near a bathroom or think about a bathroom. I also retch or throw up every time I brush my teeth. I thought I would be over this by now but at 20w it's back with a vengeance and it SUCKS.</p> <p>Solidarity, mama. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-gag-every-time-i-enter-a-bathroom-psychological-morning-sickness#post-2895710 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 13:24:32 +0000 graceandjoy 2895710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kaohinani: Ok I changed my post title to dry-heaving; 100% what I am doing lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-gag-every-time-i-enter-a-bathroom-psychological-morning-sickness#post-2895707 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 13:19:33 +0000 Kaohinani 2895707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@graceandjoy: Yes, it is when one gags (and can be nauseous) but nothing comes to fruition (* no reflux or vomiting). It can be intermittent or continuous based on one's presence to a stimuli -- in our case, the latrine! 😉😂 It is horrible! 🤢 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-gag-every-time-i-enter-a-bathroom-psychological-morning-sickness#post-2895695 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 12:52:08 +0000 graceandjoy 2895695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LadyDi: Uggh yeah I'm fully prepared to be like this. And it really doesn't help that I have to pee A LOT lol! </p> <p>@Kaohinani: Haha yes to the yes! I forgot about cleaning the toilet too! DH has pretty much taken over that cuz I just CANNOT. And I am mostly just home or at the office so no where disgusting, so I know it's completely in my head, yet it won't stop! Is dry heaving when you keep gagging nonstop?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-gag-every-time-i-enter-a-bathroom-psychological-morning-sickness#post-2895686 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 12:31:21 +0000 Kaohinani 2895686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@graceandjoy: 🤔 I'm not even pregnant and public restrooms make me gag! 🤢🙄😳😂 I gag when I clean the toilet after company has visited EVERY TIME. 🤦‍♀️ It was horrible when I was pregnant (with both of my full term pregnancies) and just opening a bathroom door (especially leading to public stalls) would make me feel hot and cool and then I would dry heave. My heart :heart: goes to you because it is such a disgusting sensation brought on by such an inane catalyst. Hopefully, yours will soon end as your pregnancy progresses. 🤞 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-gag-every-time-i-enter-a-bathroom-psychological-morning-sickness#post-2895683 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 12:25:39 +0000 LadyDi 2895683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This happened to me with blowing my nose or even thinking about blowing my nose. I didn’t even really have MS but I’d gag every time. It didn’t go away until I had the baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-gag-every-time-i-enter-a-bathroom-psychological-morning-sickness#post-2895678 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 11:42:22 +0000 graceandjoy 2895678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 15 weeks and in general my MS has gotten better, just a little sick morning/evenings. And I know this is completely psychological, but every time I go to the bathroom, take my kids to the bathroom, sometimes even just thinking about bathroom stuff, I start gagging like crazy. The more I tell myself not to think about it, the worse it ends up. It's not just smell either. I have this with brushing teeth too but not as bad. Is there anyway to try to make myself get over it?! </p>
