Ugh! I had that terrible taste too. My doc gave me a prescription for yeast on my tongue. She also said to try to drink more water, I know easier said than done right now. I sucked on a lot of sugar free mints!

It’s because you aren’t chewing any food yet. It will get better as you move through the stages & progress to more solid foods.

I know it terrible ... Well did you experience a discomfort in your stomach especially in the morning after drinking water or any liquid ? Feels like it irritates my stomach

I had to change to liquid vitamins the chewable one made the taste worse and it was like a thick coating like feeling all of the time.

the gas is unbelievable. I was walking in the rain last night to relieve it. I had also taken too many different things to relieve the gas and that made it worse. My night last night was a very long one. I’m afraid to take another sip of water thinking it will cause pain but I know I have to have liquids in me. Please share any advice
