Common Questions and Answers about Severe heartburn during pregnancy

heartburn

2030273 tn?1329708650 I have awful heartburn and acid reflux. I usually take some tums with a little bit of milk and make sure I sit up afterwards. I have severe nausea too and the heartburn always makes me get sick again. It's common in pregnancy... but I know how bad it *****!
4250731 tn?1359154323 Zofran is mostly used for nausea but if its not helping you can try a liquid antacid like maalox, mylanta o rpepcid ac (liquid works better than tablets) hope something helps
Avatar f tn Haven't had it during pregnancy, but before I got pregnant. Try eating fresh strawberries. It seemed to calm down my heart burn. Good luck hon.
Avatar f tn t imagine drinking that my husband does though he has bad heartburn but most over the counter antacids are safe during pregnancy as long as you use only as directed tums,and zantac are a few if your symptoms are more severe then normal you should take to your doctor about getting a prescription
Avatar f tn Well, yes, it's possible that you saw evap lines. The thing is, constipation, more frequent urination, heartburn, severe cramping, and extra discharge aren't symptoms of a healthy early pregnancy. Constipation, frequent urination and heartburn are symptoms of late pregnancy, caused by the size of the baby pressing on your organs. Severe cramping indicates you may have a period on the way that is a little late, and heavy.
Avatar f tn I'm 30 weeks and suffer with heart burn terrible some times its so bad it feels like it's a coming out of my ears! Doc offered me tablets that weren't known to cause any harm during pregnancy but also were not cleared by the board so I refused and rely on super milk I drink almost a litre a day!
Avatar f tn Well with both my girlies I had heartburn- not extreme or severe but quite often, and my girlies were nearly bald. Lol, I had hoped for lots hair to put bows in and style but no luck.
Avatar f tn I recently went to my drs office and mentioned that I was feeling nauseated again at 36 weeks. He stated that it's due to indigestion and I brought up how I used to be on an acid reflux medicine called protonix before getting pregnant but discontinued use of it after finding out. I've been feeling horrible but I'm iffy about taking it. anyone ever taken nexium during pregnancy?
7280472 tn?1395272714 I had the same problem. I got Zantac over the counter. It is safe during pregnancy and has helped me so much!
554174 tn?1284031102 )..but I have been suffering from severe acid reflux ever since my 3rd month..what should i do as now i am running into my 5th month and its still very much there help please!!!
Avatar f tn I found that panting like i was having a conraction helped with the pain of it! I lived on antacids during my pregnancy and they are safe to take.
Avatar f tn Its fine with my first pregnancy there wasn't enough tapatio in the world to satisfy my craving for spicy foods. I even ate jalapeƱos...and before that I was someone that couldn't eat hot cheetos because they would make me choke! That kid had me dipping hot cheetos in tapatio as a midnight snack lmao!
Avatar f tn Is it normal to have heartburn this early in pregnancy!!!
Avatar f tn 6 weeks ago I started waking up in the night with what I can only describe as heart burn - severe pain in my chest. I had heartburn during pregnancy and this pain feels nothing like this. Its just an intense pain in my chest it varies from the middle to all over the chest to just one sided, it feels like a cramping or crushing feeling. It starts before I eat and gets worse after wards. I also have pain on and off just under my right rib cage, also lately the smelliest light tan/yellow stools.
Avatar f tn Did u try taking something before bed just in case? Hope it gets better!!
1523981 tn?1311318595 During this past week I have gotten woke up by the taste of vomit in my mouth, I will wake up just as I am swallowing it. Is this normal for pregnancy or do I have more problems not related to the pregnancy starting up. I am currently at 19 weeks. Once this happens, I am affraid to go back to sleep cause I don't want this to keep happening.
Avatar n tn You could try to avoid the foods that trigger the abdominal pain and gas, during my last pregnancy grapes gave me excruciating pain! Drink plenty of water and maybe try eating prunes/prune juice. When was your last bowel movement? You could be impacted with stool if your pain is that severe.
Avatar f tn Although they may not work for very long periods of time but your OB can recommend a medication that better suits your pregnancy. I had horrible heartburn in my last pregnancy, I would literally choke on pure acid (very gross, I know!) But after I delivered..I had sudden abdominal pain. I ended up having severe gallbladder stones and had my gallbladder removed the next day.
Avatar f tn I'm 34 weeks pregnant and a FTM. For the past few days I've had severe heartburn. Is there anything I can do or take to ease it?
568659 tn?1256139982 Well, I just looked online and it is a category C drug and is not to be used during pregnancy especially not before 20 weeks. I am only 17 weeks and have been taking it since week 12! Why did he give this to me?!?!?
Avatar f tn Drink milk. Milk has started to help my heartburn.
7226011 tn?1389330533 Anyone hear the myth where if you have really bad heartburn, your baby comes out with a lot of hair? What do you think about it? I had super bad heartburn throughout my pregnancy and I just had my son Saturday night, he has a full head of hair!
Avatar f tn Has one experienced any severe UTI during pregnancy? I'm 16 weeks and ever since I got pregnant they have only gotten worse! I'm worried, my doctor is running out of options! !! Someone help!!!!!
262365 tn?1268508268 d like to add that I have lost two pounds between my 2 wk appointment because also for the past three weeks I have been suffering with acid flux/heartburn very badly. So bad til it makes me skip meals to avoid the heartburn. I also noticed that I wake up feeling nasally; I have to blow my nose (trying to clear my throat), it feels like the back of my throat is filled with mucus. I have not had a cold or virus or any so throat.
