I can't touch tomato sauce anymore. So sad, I love marinara sauce pasta. Lasagna was so yummy for my first 6 weeks. Now I can't even eat tortellinis with a hint of tomato sauce. Gives me heart burn just thinking about it.
Try keeping a food journal and record which days and time of day it's worse. Just throw a mini notebook in your purse.
I was taking Tums but that wasn't giving me much relief. My doctor gave me PriLosec and I've been heartburn free ever since. She said at 29 weeks Tums really wouldn't do anything any more. Talk with your doctor and see if they will give you anything.
I get heartburn so bad it makes me sick. My midwife says I can take Zantac, I will eat a few soft peppermints (made with peppermint oil) to help until he Zantac kicks in or peppermint rums depending on how severe it is.
Im 19w have it all the time. My doc gave me a list of safe medications while pregnant tums zantac and pepcid I know are on there ive tried them all! Lol I dont have the list with me so I dont know what else, pepcid ac has been working the best for me! Goodluck also try ice chips or milk sometimes helps
That happens to me all the time and it seems to have gotten only worse as each week goes by! I'm 34 weeks and 6 days and my nurse said the heartburn only gets worse cuz digestion slows down as the baby pushes on ur internal organs! I'm almost there can't wait to have him already:-)
just about everything gives me heartburn, even ginger ale and peppermints. I'm 26 weeks and 5 days. So, I eat what I want and chew on Tums when it hits...
I feel ur pain, I finally asked my doc Wat else I cud take bc tums n mylanta weren't doin to job n ha said pepcid, prevacid and zantac are all safe to take! I take my prevacid religiously and it has help tremendously! Good luck!
My doc gave me Gaviscon during my 1st0 it is the absolute only thing that worked for me. Including perscription, all herbal and over-the-counter meds!! LOL! Its kinda wierd b/c it foams a bit when you chew them but then that 'foam' pushes the 'burn' down and calms it.
I am 31 weeks pregnant with my 6th baby. The heartburn just got so bad I actually throw up stomach acids. I have found that Tums Dual Action work great and I only have to eat 1. My midwife also said that Pepcid Complete works well!
Eat or chew something minty! I personally prefer york patties or junion mint candies, my older sister told me about that a year ago. I've done it ever since! And its yummy, can't really overdose, @LOVIN_MY_UNBORN
Go to EarthMamaAngelBaby.com they sell an organic, pregnancy safe tea that works amazingly well for heartburn. That used to happen to me to so I bought the tea. They also sell a good tea called peaceful mama that works great for nights when you can't sleep cuz your anxious, are nesting (that's usually the case with me), or are so overtired that you just can't stay asleep....
