I know I'm late to the party but this is my third full term pregnancy and I had heartburn for the first time in my life tonight and what in the holy hell?! So sorry to those that have had this all along! Some of my thoughts for you...
Yeah I was late to the party too (I started probably two weeks ago) and it freaking sucks! Especially trying to sleep at night! I wind up sleeping propped up on pillows some nights, though since we just got our new reclining glider I may have to change location to that next time I have a problem.
I've had it bad since about 5 months, I'm on my 2nd costco sized bottle of tums, I take them everywhere with me. I can't complain too much bc it's the only real pregnancy symptom I had, but I literally had to have DH dismount last night so he could grab me 2 off our dresser - doesn't get much sexier than that!!
One of those "from the beginning" people here too - but the last two months it has ramped up from "can only eat certain foods" to "can't lay down or drink water"
Zantac or Pepcid! I'm on twice-a-day Pepcid, with occasional Tums to sleep.Seriously - you will be happy you switched
