Re: brand new here-weird question

Yes to rinsing with salt water/just switched from my toothpaste today. I googled "natural cure for abscessed tooth" as many have and found this site. Boy have I learned a lot! The only reason for the Listerine was to see if it would heal this stupid infection; I actually only bought it 2 days ago. Sounds like it will only make things worse. I am a very firm believer in the healing power of one's own body. But.

And here's the but...I have made horrible, uneducated choices in my life. Suffice it to say I was THAT kid until I got pregnant. Then, I did what I thought was right by following the doctor's orders in most areas of my life-except the dentist, who terrifies me...

Only in the last couple of months have I realized how wrong I was. Strangely enough, it was by extended breastfeeding that I have been learning these things. There isn't much support around here, so it was off to the internet..LOL. One thing keeps leading to another, and one day I hope to get to a place where my body is once again able to heal itself.

All that to say this: at this point, I have so much gunk in me that I am not sure I could fight off this infection without antibiotics. I can't do any kind of flushing until I am finished BF-ing, obviously, but I can't wait to do the MC-have heard so much about it.

Still have an oily mouth, btw-13 hours later. ???
