I'm a medical assistant at an OBGYN and although I can't give you medical advice, I can speak from personal experience as a mother of 3 and one on the way. Mustard is one food that can cause heartburn due to it being highly acidic, but it can also counteract it for some people.
Mustard works! Of course I wouldn't recommend a spicy mustard. A lady told me about it and I thought she was crazy. But I've shared the info with friends and at least 4 have tried it and said it worked for them too!
as I have awful heartburn with everything I eat too..how long does the mustard help for and the only types of mustard I know of are english or french (im from UK) which type do you use?
You might not like this but eat a tea spoon full of mustard, my baby boy gives me major heartburnand i heard this helps,i tried it and i was literally cured for a week. A home remedy that works! Try it I'm 28+3 and heartburn is no longer an issue.
As awful as it may taste. . A spoon full of mustard! This is my first pregnancy and heartburn had me waking up in the middle of the night every night cry, cause I was tired. A ate runs like candy didn't work and I hate milk. But I drunk it still didn't find comfort. So my home girl told me to try Mustard. I didn't believe it at first and then i asked all my relatives and they told me yes it works and to give it a try, they used it during their pregnancy.
I've literally had heartburn this whole pregnancy. I usually just take Tums.. or if I'm out, I usually swallow some mustard (gross) but it works for me everytime!!
I've tired everything except mustard and I'm still in agony!!! Indigestion since finding out and nothing helps. My midwife prescribed some pills called dicelix(sp) I'm kind of scared to try due to all other methods but I've read reviews that it works.
Ive had it with heartburn !!! I drink milk all freaking day and tums. Like idk what else to do, everything gives me heartburn. I cant even eat in peace. Im sooo annoying and frustrated. Idk what else to take !!!
I'm being induced in one week. But I don't know if I can take much more of this heartburn and acid reflex. It's so bad I wake up multiple times in the night. Tums arent working anymore and Zantac helps a little. I can't take it! Giving birth sounds so muh better than another night of this!
I am 27 weeks and I have really really bad heartburn. It's soo bad I can lay down. It stops me from sleeping. Is there anyway I can get rid of it. Does anyone have any advice on this how to make it better.. it happens so much at night.
I've been getting heartburn if I'm hungry lately, maybe a small snack would help?
Also, a drink of milk helps. So does yogurt or ice cream, in small portions of course. And while I've never tried it, I heard a spoonful of mustard helps.
