heartburn?! really?

[tjayne07]

Just having a moan.....
It seems no matter what I eat or drink, even water, im getting real bad heartburn
I dont normally suffer with things like this so not doing well haha!
Gaviscon is my best friend right now...... but is there a limit on how much you can take?
I can ask mw tomorrow anyhow x

I feel you. I've never had heartburn in my life until I got pregnant, now I've had it from the start. It's awful. It has me crying in pain, waking up at night, throwing up. It's there 24/7, no matter what I eat or drink.

I've tried everything over the counter and from the doctor - nada. Even omperazole tablets don't work. It's torture!

I got through a 500ml bottle of gaviscon/peptac/several other useless things in a day - it won't harm baby

Oh gee!
I dont no if I can manage the whole next 7 months with this! Haha
At least I can take Gaviscon without worrying if its too much xx

Out of all the liquids, peptac was the best for me. It still wasn't great but it worked for longer than the others. Gaviscon gave me a couple of minutes relief if I was lucky!

May have to try some of that then..... its not like im already put off food due to nausea or anything. ....

Rennies chewy sweets are basically all I use now. Again, not great but it buys me a little relief! I get through them like air though.. the magnesium in them means I'm never out of the toilet

I had heart burn in tri 1 along with morning sickness then in tri 3 as my bump started to get bigger. It went away in tri 2 though.
