Acid Reflux / Heartburn

I’m 35 weeks tomorrow. What are your remedies for heartburn/acid reflux? I have been having it on and off and usually Tums helped… not anymore.. this is the third night in a row when I’m unable to sleep because it’s so bad. I tried multiple things (pickle juice, diary, drinking cold water, Tums, laying on left side) and it’s just so bad!! I don’t see my doctor for another week. I’m willing to try anything 🥴😩

Hi! I will be 35 on Monday and I feel exactly the same way!!! I hope we can get some answers! I havent been able to sleep. I read something about eating smaller meals , not eating at least two hrs before bed, avoiding chocolate, spicy food or sodas 🤷🏽‍♀️

@Gabriela all of those are good tips! Tonight I’m guilty of soda and chocolate but overall, I have adjusted my diet and still struggling… I hate to think that this will be an issue all the way up till delivery 🙈🙉🙊

@Natalia i have to admit I’ve been craving coke a lottt and chocolate as well so that doesn’t help me haha

@Gabriela I guess I should mention that I have had both my entire pregnancy and had been fine up to this point… so it’s not a new thing. But maybe it’s time to slow down and really really adjust 🥺😩

Chewable papaya enzymes will save your life. and fatomidine 20mg is safe for pregnancy.

Grab some Pepcid complete it’s deff a heavy duty tums . . Helped for me 2 a day one in the morning and one at night it has done wonders!! And I was struggling hard tums too has stopped working for me , but Pepcid complete is an otc so you should try that first before getting anything else prescribed
