I get the same, particularly in the evening and overnight. If I drink more I end getting up a lot in the night for the loo, but if I don’t drink I wake up feeling really thirsty and with a really dry mouth. I feel like I can’t win! X

Chewing gum?

I found that at night I was ‘mouth breathing’ because my nose was blocked up which made it worse x

drinking more doesn’t seem to sort it out for me! Doesn’t seem to be linked with hydration at all.

I actually haven’t tried chewing gum but feel that’s a really good idea. Thank you!

I've been experiencing dry mouth (esp worse in the evenings when I sleep) since first trimester! I actually thought its my bedroom air which is particularly dry. I just take sips of water to cope with it.

It's can be a symptom of low iron. You could ask to get your iron levels checked x
