Pregnant after a Loss

What do you do for heart burn?

I have it bad every day & sometimes wake up with it at night
Tums helps temporarily but what else can I do?

  • Pepcid.

    I've changed my diet, tried natural remedies, slept sitting up, you name it, I've tried it.

    Pepcid is the only thing that remotely helps.

  • My OB said i could take Zantac (even twice a day if I need). Taking daily has really helped and sometimes I need to take tums as well (rarely but the OB did say I could)!
  • I eat ice cream or drink milk :) Sitting up usually helps the most though!

  • Tums & ice cream. Hasn't made much of difference for me if I'm sitting or I lay down to go to bed...Dr. also told me I could take Mylanta, but haven't resorted to that yet...

  • I use the Target brand form of Zantac. It beats the chalky taste of Tums any day
