1st trimester and bad taste in mouth all the time...

Sounds about right. Mine lasted through the entire pregnancy...both times. Yuck!

I had it with my last pregnancy as well. It is markedly diminished now (18 weeks), though eating sweet things makes it worse. I do best drinking water with lemon, brushing with a baking soda based toothpaste, and chewing extremely strong minty gum. Nothing cures it, but some of those things make it more tolerable.

I'm well into my second trimester and still have it. So frustrating to think everything tastes bad!!!

I didn't have it with DC1 but am having it now with DC2 with a vengeance.

I found that eating citrus things (tangerines, grapefruit, lemons) helps a lot. I know ginger is the best but I loathe the taste.

Yes, I had this. Also had extra phlegm/mucus production in my throat for the whole first trimester (disgusting). Chewing gum helped me.
