3rd Trimester

The start of heartburn?

Apparently for me, the Third Trimester marks the beginning of heartburn.

It came on all of a sudden a few nights ago and has happened every night since. This morning I woke up to some vigorous kicking going on and awful heartburn. I got up, took some Tums and went back to bed. Then I couldn't sleep because I was still feeling bloated.

I've never had heartburn at all until the last few days. Has this happened to anyone else? Were you heartburn free then all of a sudden it came on right about now in your pregnancy?

  • I've had it most of my pregnancy. You can take Tums, Zantac or Pepcid.

  • My dr said I could take Prilosec. I take one in the morning before I eat and it works like a charm. I was taking Tums but that started to not work this past month. Good luck!

  • I burped up stomach acid yesterday. It burned the back of my throat. I hope I don't get acid reflux now.

    Esma: I'll turn him into a flea. A harmless little flea. Then Ill put that flea in a box. And put that box inside another box. Mail that box to myself. And when it arrives. ILL SMASH IT WITH A HAMMER. Its brilliant, brilliant, brilliant I tell you. Genius I say.
    Or to save on postage. Ill poison him with this.

    It's exactly the same for me too. I have never had heatburn before but it just started a few days ago, right on the 28 week mark. It kinda comes and goes throughout the day but I've been taking tums and trying to eat smaller meals. I ate some strawberry icecream last night though, and strangely enough, it actually helped. :)
    I'm just hoping the heartburn doesn't last the rest of my pregnancy. It's really uncomfortable. I hope you can find something that helps you.
