What should I do?

Question

I have terrible heart burn at night sometimes it's hard for me to get to sleep I don't like how tums taste what should I do?

Answer

Sleep propped up, like in a recliner. Don't eat or drink anything 2-3 hours before going to bed. Start taking Zantac

Answer

I know sleeping on your left side helps some. Try to eat more blan foods if you can. I also hate the taste of tums but they have different flavors that you might be able to stomach. They really do knock the edge off. Gl !

Answer

Zantac may help you out. It does for me.

Answer

I have to force down the Tums but they work so i do it. 
Can try drinking milk, or talking to your doctor. Mine told me if my heartburn and neaseua  (Which she thinks is cause by the heartburn and acid reflux) get worse she will proscribe me something

Answer

This going to sound gross but it total works.  I can't take tums because of the high levels of calcium in my system. This really works. Every morning I fill a cup up with water and add a tablespoon of baking soda and when I get heartburn I take a drink of it. You don't have to drink the whole cup. It helps so fast. If you still have heartburn you can drink more throughout the day.

Answer

My doctor said taking Prilosec is okay. I had bad heartburn before I was pregnant and now it's just worse. I know you said you didn't like Tums but they have these cherry flavored chews that work great. You might like those better. I also found Heartburn Relief supplements by TruNatal next to prenatals in Walmart. Kinda like tums but taste way different. Hope you feel better!

Answer

Oh gosh, that's the worst! My friend who is a nurse recommended vanilla ice cream. I totally thought she was kidding, but it actually did help. Small quantities of course.

For me, it didn't matter the food, it was all about quantity. If I didn't eat a lot or drink anything it was better no matter how long before bed.

Good luck! At 33 weeks mine is settling down now!
