Im in 3rd tri. Im 34 weeks. Had heartburn since the very beginning. Gaviscon helps. Ask your MW to prescribe it.

gavisgon is awful though

Tums worked for me hun. Theyre pretty vile but nowhere near as bad as gaviscon.

gavisgon is awful though

I know i hate it but its better than having the heartburn and trust me the heartburn gets really bad. I wake up at all times of the night with it.

i've had this as well isn't it vile?! not so bad at the moment it was worse up until about a week ago. not really sure what to suggest though as i haven't really tried anything except whingeing about it i found that sipping cold drinks, or cooled boiled water, helps a bit?

I ate Rennies like they were going out of fashion! Hope it eases soon

I had it with my first pregnancy and it was all the way thru till she was born. Bloomin awful I gotta tell ya, I hated it! I was drinking pints and pints of milk every day just to get rid of it. I found the only way I could sleep was sitting up so my head was higher than my stomach otherwise the acid reflux was just bleurgh!

i found the rennies soft chews really helped amy, hope it gets better soon xx

Ive just had a glass of milk but i find it doesnt stop it for long

I get awful heartburn too, its not nice!! I went to the doctor in the end and they prescribed me with Omeprazole, it stops the stomach producing acid and works really well if I take it just as I am getting up. It does tend to wear off in the early evening so I have gaviscon advance for then. It has made such a difference to me, I would definitely recommend going to your dr for some help, there's no point suffering and its safe to take during pregnancy!

I didnt find anything to help ease it to be honest and I do get it normally but it got so much worse this pregnancy! Hope this helps x

calcachews! calcium tablets. you have to be given them by a doctor and they have different names but nothing has ever got rid of mine and my friends heartburn better then my calcium tablets.!!

I had really bad heartburn and it seems that after awhile Tums, milk or anything supposed to help stops working after awhile. I started getting a craving for apples and noticed one day that after I ate an apple the hearburn stopped. It seems to do the trick for me...hope you get some relief.
