Anyone else find they're clenching there gaw? Not in an angry way, it seems to have become a habit! This in turn is making my teeth hurt/ache. Anyone else had this, how do I stop? LO is 4 days old!
I've not had my baby yet but I went through a phase of clenching my jaw when I was planning our wedding! It was so odd, I would just suddenly notice I was doing it and it was so frustrating. I think it's just cos I was getting quite stressed out with things and felt like no one was really helping me/I had shit loads to do!! It was hard to stop and I probably did it for a period of about 2 or 3 months but as I started to relax about things I did it less and less. Are you feeling quite stressed or like you have lots of things to do but not enough hours in the day? Sorry I can't really suggest anything to help other than trying to keep relaxed.
I have loads of problems with clenching my jaw and never really realised until dentist pointed it out, and said my muscles were so tight. I had acupuncture and facial massage on it for a few months and the difference was incredible! Regular loosening / exercising mouth and generally being aware of it helps me to manage it now. X
