Well many of you know that we were blessed with our baby girl two weeks ago. Been busy on that front. However, yesterday I was brushing mystery and noticed a small black spot on the left side of my tongue. Hubby says it is just a blood blister, but how can you tell? It doesn't hurt at all. I guess we just watch and wait a week.

Sorry to hear you have a spot. Sometimes a spot turns out to be nothing serious at all. You know the drill! Hope it turns out to be nothing serious.

I was rereading my post. That darn self correction. "I was brushing mystery" is supposed to say "I was brushing my teeth". Lol

Angelia, I've been having a lot of those blood blisters in my mouth lately too. Can't explain it. But they do go away. And then last week I noticed a black spot on my tongue that worried me. But a coupla days later it too was gone.

Keep us posted - hoping it's nothing. And, as we say in the old country, Mazel Tov on the baby!
