Okay so i feel like every 5 minutes im burping up a fireball. What is with this heartburn??? I had it alittle bit in my first trimester but this is crazy I feel like i drink water and get heartburn. Anyone else suffering from the inferno?

I'm getting it bad...real bad. Within the past week or so it's really hit an all time low. After laying in bed at night after about 30 mins I have to get up and throw up. It's so awful. I had bad heartburn with DS too but not until the last month....and all I'd do was take a tums and be fine. This time it's absolutely horrible. I'm taking some over the counter stuff and hoping that will help but if not my MW said to call and she'd call me in a prescription. I've also been sleeping sitting up which is extremely uncomfortable but helping the heartburn a little.

I haven't had it at all until this week! It's terrible!

I've had it since the 2nd tri basically, even late 1st tri. It's awful.

Totally sucks. Tums do not help anymore. Zantac 75mg for me, sometimes twice a day. It seems to do the trick.

Milk and tums are working for me so far but my Dr said  Pepcid was the next step when I talked to her at my last appt

Pepcid has worked for me when it's really bad - but only taking it before eating, not taking it for relief afterwards.

Also, not eating for a few hours before bed is helping (yes, a few - at least 3).  I find it's easier to go to bed hungry than to go to bed with heartburn, though going to bed hungry isn't so comfortable either...

YES I tell everyone it feels like I am swallowing battery acid. Its horrible and I can't have candy, gum or anything like that at work with me, I work in production. IT SUCKS!
