heartburn/acid reflux doing my head in

[sotough]

i'm 27 weeks pg and feeling so fed up with constant heartburn, acid reflux and other unpleasant digestive type problems. none of it is serious compared to the awful things some women go through in pregnancy but i'm so sick of not being able to enjoy food like a normal person; constantly finding myself with a mouthful of weird tasting frothy spit (TMI, sorry) and feeling like food never really goes down properly but sits at the top of my chest.
has anyone worked out what food sets off heartburn etc?? try as i might i can't detect much of a pattern in my case. i've cut out things that do always trigger it (cake and biscuits among others) but i continue to get it anyway, sometimes from things i thought were 'safe.'
has anyone got any tips, apart from buying shares in the manufacturers of Gaviscon? i am mainlining this stuff, two or three doses a day, day in day out. it can't be right.

Check out the thread 'reflux. nothing seems to work' that has been going over the last couple of days. Lots of tips on there and lots of people feeling just like you. It's so horrible isn't it.

Sorry I don't know how to put a link in but at the moment the thread is on page 2

It's not usually to do with food types, it's to do with having a person living in your downstairs! I'd say get a couple of pints of Gaviscon Double Action on prescription and swig away!

Ranitidine is a very safe drug which can be used in pregnancy and which treats heartburn, etc. I was miserable as sin with heartburn in my last pg and GP prescribed it. It really helped.
