I seriously am having such a hard time with this. I have had heartburn nearly the entire pregnancy but at 28 weeks it just got out of control.

I got the OK to take Zantac 2x daily and since doing that I have no heartburn, but because the baby is crowding my stomach I get the worst acid reflux. That coupled with my bucketloads of saliva while I sleep, I’ll literally wake up coughing and nearly choking on stomach acid and saliva!!!

I’ve tried everything: papaya enzymes, tums, aloe juice, ACV. It doesn’t work. I can’t do baking soda because it’s too high in sodium. I even start sleep practically upright, don’t eat food for 2 hours before sleep, take all meds and water 2 hours before sleep all just to be sure there’s nothing in my stomach at bedtime. I’ll even extend my bedtime to make sure and that’s hard cause I’m a tired lady these days!

Honestly I’m not looking for solutions just needed to vent cause it’s just so awful and I’m losing precious sleep over it! I have 7 weeks to go but man, this is making me crazy!
