HEARTBURN Any one?

ninas30 · June 2015

any one else getting heart burn, it's really killing me. This is my 3rd baby and getting bad this time round..

ajhellmuth · June 2015

Horribly!!!! I'm taking prilosec daily. Don't make yourself suffer it's perfectly safe to take an antacid!

ninas30 · June 2015

I'm on tums but there not working! When are you due, and do you know what your having?

MirandaC1984 · June 2015

This just started for me. I'm only 22 weeks but it's BAD. I'm taking prilosec as well. Works wonders for me.

amorrison624 · June 2015

I'm taking Zantac 150 twice a day. I still have to take tums for the breakthrough every once and a while.

ninas30 · June 2015

It's that burning sensation that's awful nothing is really working on me. It's worse when I lie down.

EVOXCHIC · June 2015

Oh the heartburn!!! I wake up with it and go to sleep with it, no matter what I eat. Tums are my best friend right now

rue:D · June 2015

Been awful since about 8w and I'm 23w now. Prilosec OTC daily and an occasional Zantac every once in a while have helped immensely.

BabyOIsComing · June 2015

Omg...it started this week. Killer. Luckily Tums seems to be instant relief, but when it hits, it's crazy.

Birdee212 · June 2015

Just got a prescription for my GERD! Whoop whoop!! Hope it works because my esophagus hates me right now.

NicoleAndDerrick · June 2015

My heartburn is awful, all day everyday. I was up battling it for 3 hours last night. I take tums but I'm trying to tough it out this whole pregnancy and not take any other types of medicine.

jefinley1 · June 2015

I didn't even know what it was as I've never experienced it. I thought I was just getting some kind of 9:30pm MS. I Googled to see if my symptoms fit heartburn, and they did, so then I checked to see what was safe during pregnancy. After that, my darling husband ran to the drug store for Zantac so I could stay curled up in a ball. It is finally starting to not be every day and I am almost 26 weeks. I get the 75 so that I can try one, and then take another if I need and it really helps. Hope it gets better for you! It really is awful.

ChariZae · June 2015

Yesterday was the worst for me yet!!! My esophagus was on fire and I couldn't stop belching. I'm trying to contol things with just tums, but if it continues, I will have to step it up.

cdepperschmidt · June 2015

Ugh! Me too! And the worst cause of it is chocolate, which makes me sad!

mrsdhouse89 · June 2015

Mine is horrible today, ugh to the point it is making me sick. First time having it this pregnancy and I'm hoping it's due to something I ate.

Ree0123 · June 2015

I get heartburn right before bedtime. It's terrible. I'm back to popping tums like candy

cmjn94 · June 2015

I had it really bad around weeks 19-21 or so. It's defintiely gotten better but I still have to deal with it. I hope it gets better for you.

I always start with Tums but if Tums don't work I eat peppermint! .

Sballerina · June 2015

My experience was similar to @cmjn94. It appeared around week 18 and stuck around more or less for 2-3 weeks. Now I am starting week 23 and have barely had any for the last week if not more. I do have a bit tonight, probably because I ate pepperoni pizza. It does seem to tend to be worse if I eat spicier foods. Though when I ate chili earlier this week I don't remember it causing it. As of yet I have not tried Tums or medication.

Peatree26845 · June 2015

I eat a cup of organic yogurt a day and it makes the heartburn not as bad. Also, Oberweis banana shakes make it go away completely

gerbies · June 2015

First, I must say the heartburn is better this pregnancy. With my son 6 years ago, EVERYTHING I ate or drank gave me heartburn, including water. I don't have it with everything I ingest, but I get it at night really bad...so bad, it wakes me up...probably every other night. Luckily, it's a short time in the span of everything.

MariahOBrien · June 2015

Ugh, yes. Mostly at night. Peppermint flavored calcium chews for the fuckin' win.

amcge87 · July 2015

Any time I have heart burn it's only on my left side. It hurts to breathe in all the way. I took some tums and it made it feel a little better. I used to have this happen to me every now and then but today was the first time during this pregnancy. Just right under my left breast and feels constricting- other than that I feel great. Any suggestions?

leighann1 · July 2015

I've had it off and on, but lately I've just been feeling like food is stuck in my esophagus. It just sits there and makes me feel like I'll throw up if I burp. It doesn't particularly burn or hurt. Can this be a form of reflux/heartburn too?? It's super annoying. Sitting up is about the only thing that helps. Just one more thing to keep me from sleeping.

meghan82 · July 2015

heartburn is sadly my life, no matter what i eat-- or even if i don't eat! sometimes it feels like my insides are actually burning. super unpleasant. and what bugs me is that things that i've eaten without any heartburn for months can suddenly cause me heartburn (ex., on sunday, it was an english muffin with peanut butter, which i eat probably 4 days out of 7 and never have any problems with!!). i can't function without zantac and tums. on a good day i can make it with just taking 1 zantac or just eating a few tums but haven't gone without one or the other in a couple of months.

Mommajones0315 · July 2015

Yes !!!! So bad I end up vomiting most nights. It was awful with my son too. I have got to get something other than tums from my doc to help.

feeohhnaax7 · July 2015

I've had it twice now, once a few weeks ago (it was so bad it woke me up, and I couldn't fall back asleep!) and I've had it all day. I've never had it in my life!

ruthsurface · July 2015

Oh my gosh... It's been pretty much constant for the past couple of weeks and getting progressively worse. It's so bad I have actually thought I have had strepp it's that painful!!! 26 weeks... Baby girl must be growing all her hair this week

Dana_luvs_Jayson · July 2015

I heard apple cider vinegar helps. I tried it for the first time yesterday and it helped! I made some tea and just added one or two teaspoons to the tea.

Vallejomama3 · July 2015

Yes!! This is my 3rd as well and I didn't have it like this my last two pregnancies. Mine has just gotten bad the last couple of weeks. I was reading not to eat 3-4 hrs before bed and also tomatoes, or acidic foods- hope yours gets better soon

ineeneecakes29 · July 2015

Yesssss .. Tums works wonders or a cold glass of milk does the trick for me

michellelynn6 · July 2015

I had wicked bad heartburn for a week, every single night like clockwork. Milk did nothing. Tums did nothing. The minute my doctor told me to take some Prilosec and the OTC kind was ok... it went away. Haven't had any since! Swear, every time I call my doctor about a concern, it goes away and then at the next appointment, I sound crazy!!

perrysaurus · July 2015

Ughhhh heartburn no matter what I eat, and no matter when I stop eating. I have been avoiding food/drink hours before bed, and still get it. Luckily a single tums does the trick for me .

Knottie96391996 · July 2015

How I currently feel.

310mbr · July 2015

Feels like I'm full of lava!

MandahGirly · July 2015

I have had heartburn every damn day of this pregnancy. I've noticed it's become more persistent since I've entered the third tri. I'm going to talk to my doctor to see if I can take something other than Tums (I seriously pop that Sh*t like candy). If the wives tale is true about the more heartburn you have the more hair baby is going to have then this girl is going to have hair down to her butt.
