I hate you heartburn!

I have been having the worst heartburn. And of course, there's no damn tums in the house and milk isn't working. Gah!

And if one more person tells me my kid is going to have a ton of hair because I'm having heartburn I'm going to scream.

Re: I hate you heartburn!

  • I second this and feel your pain . I get heartburn just from drinking water sometimes and it takes 2-5 tums to get it under control.

  • I've been taking calcium supplement chews at dinner. It's helped some. It hit me as a good idea about three days ago after two weeks of torture! I can't keep tums in the house - my dog eventually finds them and eats them.

  • If you are needing tums that often, you may have your doc write you a script for some omeprazole. It's over the counter, but it'd probably cost you less with a prescription. I awful heartburn last time I was pregnant but have been lucky this time *knock on wood*
  • I hear you. I had heartburn from this morning until dinner. I took maybe a total of four Tums (I keep a bottle in my purse) and didn't feel much better. Not sure what killed it but I'm sure it'll be back tomorrow. :)
  • It might be the later on heartburn, but there is actually a correlation between heartburn and hair :)  Right now it's probably just the relaxin messing with your esophagus.

  • I find that applesauce or an apple will help with the heartburn. I also will take a nexium sometimes. Every once in a while I have to take tums. But anyways applesauce tastes good and just might help. Feel better soon!
  • Ugggghhh heartburn has been kicking my ass from the start. Everyone keeps saying it means the baby is going to have a lot if hair. I sure hope so!
  • I am up because I can't sleep from heartburn and funny this is the first post I see. I also had horrible heartburn with dd and she had no hair and still has very little hair.

  • I second the pp who said to ask for a scrip for something stronger and preventative. Feel better!
