1st Trimester

Early heart burn?

Hi, I am new to these boards. How early is too early to be getting symptoms? I was due to get my period 2 days ago, not long I know! But I am very regular. I have had the odd twinge/cramp and thought "Oh yup, it's coming" but nothing. I would not usually think anything of it, however for the last 3 days I have had the worse heart burn. I usually get acid reflux on and off, but it has been 3 days of hell, I have been burping up vomit, having to sleep up right, feel like a hole has been burned inside me!

I did go to the Drs today, about an (preggo) unrelated issue, and mentioned the heartburn, and was given some tablets. It didn't occur to be that I could be pregnant until now.

So anyway my question is, if you did get heartburn whilst pregnant, how early was it? Of course I will do a pregnancy test in a couple of days if I still don;t have my period, I'm more interested what others experience more than anything. 

Re: Early heart burn?

  • If you have already "missed" your period you should be able to get a true answer from an HPT. That's the only real way to know. Picking apart symptoms will do nothing.

    To answer your question I began getting really bad heartburn about 2 weeks ago once my morning sickness went away.

  • I'm 11 weeks and I started having heartburn at 6 weeks. I still have it quite often. Wasn't like this with my first three. Didn't get it until the end of my 2nd trimester but every pregnancy is different. You should definitely get a test being that you're two days late. I always knew I was pregnant five days before I was due for my period. So I would take a test and POSITIVE.

  • Your best bet is to take a test to be sure. But, I started getting heartburn before I got a BFP, probably around 4 weeks, and I still have it just about every morning.

  • With DD, I hardly EVER had heartburn.  But this time around, the heartburn's already started.  Take a test.  Even if you think it's too soon.  If you've missed a period-even by only 2 days-you should test positive.  I thought it was too soon for me when I took mine but it came back positive within a second.
