I woke up 3 days ago and noticed my gums above my teeth were hurting. They have these little holes in it right above my teeth. I switched to a soft toothbrush and it isn’t helping. Can anyone tell me what this looks like? Pleaseeeeee

It looks like you might have some minor apthous ulcers forming. They usually disappear on their own after about 2 weeks. We usually only treat the symptoms. There is no cure. If your immune system is under pressure in the future, they might appear again. Nothing to worry about.
