39 Week Heartburn

I thought stomach and breathing problems were supposed to get better at the end of pregnancy!  I've had acid reflux problems for years, so I've been taking Pepcid AC max throughout pregnancy.  Aside from some lovely morning sickness-related reflux, things have been pretty good until the last few days.  Now anything I eat kills me.  I really wanted to have some spicy food this weekend (not really to induce labor, just because I know I'll have to be more careful about stuff like that when I'm breastfeeding), and now I don't see that happening.  Anyone else?

  • My heartburn has def. gotten worse in the last couple weeks!

    My midwife said its just my body preparing for delivery - my muscles are loosening up, which means acid escaping from stomach Tongue Tied

    Let's hope our LOs get the message and come on out already!

  • I'm 38 wks and starting to get it much worse than before. Tums have become what we're calling "after dinner mints" at my house :) pretty much every meal.
