Can having heartburn during pregnancy mean your baby will have a lot of hair?

Question

Hey mamas-to-be! I've heard this interesting old wives' tale that says if you have heartburn during pregnancy, your baby will have a full head of hair. Have any of you experienced this? Let's chat, share our heartburn struggles, and see if there's any truth to this myth!

Answer

With each pregnancy I've had heartburn from 20 weeks on. My babies always have hair, but definitely not a lot of it.

Answer

Just an old wives tale. I didn’t have any heartburn with my girls and they came out with full wigs on lol we’ll see about this third one, I’ve had occasional heartburn this time around

Answer

I think it is just an old wives tale as around 80% of mammas to be report heartburn particularly towards the end. Although it has been accurate for me!

Answer

My son did have a bit of hair, not sooo much, but I didn’t have heartburn with him. I’m having heartburn with my daughter, so we shall see in the next few weeks if she comes out with more hair lol

Answer

I usually have bad heartburn at the end, and my babies have usually been pretty bald although my third did have some hair!

Answer

I read theres a certain amount of truth in that!
