I googled it for you and this is what i found.

No pepto is not safe for pregnant women at all. I would go get yourself some tums or maalox hon, or try eating a dry cracker or something to absorb the acid and maybe a glass of water.

Mine was sooooo bad with my DS, I finally found an at home recipe that worked..baking soda in warm water. Was disgusting but worked FAST.

My dr said anything BUT Pepto. So, NOT PEPTO. You can take Mylanta, Tums, Rolaids, and/or Maalox. And, in the 3rd trimester you can take Pepcid.

Future reference...

Take the tums before you eat...it works much better.
