I'm 33 weeks pregnant with DC2 - have at least 6 weeks to go till my ELCS and I have terrible heartburn!
Not just laying down trying to sleep heartburn either. That I was expecting and could cope with. This is heartburn that I get while sat upright on the sofa watching TV too!!
I'm living with it for now and swigging Gaviscon from the bottle (having given up on spoons) at bedtime to try and get some sleep between achey hips and needing to pee but it's driving me crazy and making me miserable.
Obviously, I'd rather not be taking too much Gaviscon or any other medicine while pregnant so while I don't mind at bedtime, I don't want to be taking it all day too but I need to do something!
Does anyone have any tips or natural remedies for heartburn that I could use till this baby drops and quits using my stomach as a football?
Please!!
