pregnancy + Pizza = very bad idea!

karukaru · February 2010

This is my second pregnancy (about 5 weeks pregnant) and so far I was doing pretty good. I occasionally feel queasy but no real MS. I had no heartburn until last night! DH asked me what I wanted for dinner and I said "pizza" (He said "what my baby wants, my baby gets" hahaha I think he is even more excited with this pregnancy) OMG, after I ate it I had the worst heartburn! I was eating pretty well before (lots of veggies, protein, salad and good carbs) so I'm not sure if my body got used to eating healthy or if i'm going to get HB regardless. Let me tell you, It sucks! How do get rid of it if you don't have rolaids/tubs on hand? Thanks

ice cream!

And now I want pizza - but for some reason no one will deliver in two and a half feet of snow

I just found out that I am pregnant. And almost everything I eat gives me heart burn! I think HB is just a thing that some of us PG women will have to deal with. Trust me I am not looking forward to that one!

I have had pizza almost every day since I've conceived. It is the strangest thing, I was lactose intolerant for 16 years. Out of the blue, I was craving pizza and tried it, and was fine. Now I cannot stop eating it. This is turning into a very unhealthy habit!! Apparently pregnancy and dairy go together for me!!

Easy option - drink milk, eat ice cream,?or send adoring DH out for rolaids. ?

Tougher option - dissolve baking soda in water and drink it. ?Its safe and the only side effect is that it may cause water retention because of the sodium, but that's not a really big deal until later in the pregnancy. ?But it tastes awful.

I've also read that hot tamales candy and licorice can help...?
