    Same here. Iam a lil over 12 weeks. I googled it & alot of women hav dis problem! Especially w l dere 2nd or so.on pregnancy. I started skool for nursing & ive had to take a leave already bcus it is that bad! :/. I kno this sounds nasty but i hav to keep an empty water bottle by my bed @ nite. I found chewing sugarfree gum helps me. I use extra bcus it lasts longer. An elderly lady told me coffee grinds (yuck). She said to put a lil under my tongue & it will absorb some of the xtra saliva. Crazy enough..there is no known cause for this.

    I have to keep a trash can by my bed. Its gross! I'm gonna have to try out the gum!

    Yea..its embarrasing also. But try the gum...it works fa da most part fa me! Even if yu get lil candies & keep dem w l yu. Those help! & today when i went to the movies..i got sour gummy worms. That helpd alot! The sour taste takes from da saliva also. If yu can bare it, try & get some sour candies or gum!! Hope somethin works sweetie! :) let me kno if yu find anything other den wat i said! Thanx.
