Re: What do you take for pregnancy heartburn?
When I was pregnant with DS I took tums (too many to count) and lots of dairy! It was a great excuse to have a milk shake!

I didn't know dairy helped with heartburn.
Starbucks frappuccinos have been making me feel better lately.

Re: What do you take for pregnancy heartburn?
I took Zantac 150...No help there...Tums didn't work for me at all. I was on Nexium until my 3rd month then switched to something else. Didn't help at all. Ask your pharmacist what to take...And feel better. I had severe heartburn throughout my entire pregnancy and ended up in the ER one night thinking I was having a hear attack...

Re: What do you take for pregnancy heartburn?
I lived on Zantac, so no help there but I also used tums.
From what I read online, dairy actually makes it worse, so you might want to look into that before consuming too much

Re: What do you take for pregnancy heartburn?
Pepcid AC twice a day and MILK.
I heard almonds help too.
I had such TERRIBLE heartburn with DD that I would throw up.
I couldnt use Tums bc they made me sick.

Re: What do you take for pregnancy heartburn?
Mint chip ice cream
Dairy has been a lifesaver. Milk, yogurt, and ice cream have worked better for me than Tums.

Yep and also take a good look at your diet...cut out carbonated drinks, red sauce, citrus fruits and juices...
Its not fun, I had HB from 10 weeks until literally the moment they pulled DS out....then AHHHH the relief!
