Lump in throat feeling

Any other preggers feeling like this? I have had occasional acid reflux, but nothing major. Now it feels like I have a golf ball in my throat. Dr. said my thyroid feels fine. Anyone else have this feeling? Any advice?

  • I usually have that feeling when my reflux is bad. Taking Gaviscon works for me.

    I get the feeling, too. For me it goes along with or results from heartburn. I have a zantac prescription that helps a bunch.

    Edited because of typo.
  • I've had it most of this pregnancy. I thought it was nausea but who knows because I also have heartburn and indigestion. Went away for about 2 weeks, now it's back. I doubt it's thyroid related because I am on thyroid meds and my thyroid levels are normal. I guess it's just one of the gentle reminders we are pregnant!!
    Tums are my friends:). I've also had to cut back on acidic foods (I should cut back in fried foods too but that ain't happening).

    It's called globus sensation and it is related to heartburn. Edit: autocorrected globus to globes
  • Yep. The last time it happened to me, it was my first clue I was pregnant. Zantac works wonders.
  • Thank you so much for the replies! Helps ease my nerves knowing others have experienced it too : )
