  Try Mylanta. It kills the burn in the throat almost at once.

  I have GERD so I am used to getting this, pregnant or not.  Try to stick to foods that are not acidic, you can look up low residue diet... following some of that may help a bit.

  I feel your pain!

  Someone explain to me why I saw "esophagus" and read "asparagus."

  Me too and it got in my nose too...BLECH.  I also just got back from the ENT doctor who surmised that my horrendous ear pain at night is related to reflux.  Oh the joys!

  I had never experienced this until this week.  I now have enormous sympathy for those who deal with this on a daily (non-pregnant) basis.  I slept sitting up last night and it was the most uncomfortable night of sleep ever.

  I have found that eating milk/cheese products helps a little with the prevention. I've been putting up with GERD since I was 15, so I hear this ladies. Pregnancy definitely makes it worse, though.

  The weird thing is, I had GERD pre-preg, but this is a totally different ball game.   It's like, perma-mouth-vomit.

  Blech.   ::chugs water to try to force it down::

  Double Blech.

  Cool. It can hang out with mine. I am sending it to a resort in Mexico. It isn't allowed to come back until it can behave.

  Life is either a daring adventure or it is nothing at all.

  Can I hang out with yours?   I'd rather head down the mexico, and let my esophagus stay here to deal with all the work I have to finish.
