Ok Heartburn Is Really Bad, Ran Out Of Gaviscon! Help!!!!

[magnolia1]

35 weeks pg, Gaviscon ran out so won't have any till tomorrow. I am in agony Won't be able to sleep!!!!

What can I do? Have had lots of milk bu what else helps?

oh dear... I ate rennies like there was no tomorrow, have you any?

chalky mints, ummm cant think what they are called, sorry

Nope have nothing medical in the house for hearburn

Yoghurt, pref. natural.

oh, polos helped me aswell...just sucking them.

What about strawberry yoghurt?? Thats about all I have

do you have any icecream? if you eat it very slowly, allowing for it to go down bit by bit that often helps. also, milk, but sip it very slowly, again just letting it dribble down your throat. make sure you prop yourself up in bed so you're not lying flat.

I sympathise, I had cronic heartburn when I was pregnant with ds and was intolerant to antacids so lived on milk for the duration of my pregnancy.

Ok so gulping down a pink of milk probaby wasn't the best idea

peppermint tea?

and most;y - don't panic about it - stress will make it worse

Give the yoghurt a go, at least it will be cold!

Do you not have an all-night Tesco nearby?

Soda water can help

Tried the yogurt, Car playing up so Dh can't get to Tesco and have no soda water

I want to go to bed but just know when I do it will get worse.

Oh the joys of pregnancy And to think its supposed to get better when the bump drops!! Well bump has dropped so I pee every 5 minutes but he still has his bum in my ribs TUT!

av u any ginger? nuts or in tea will help!!honest!!

OMG I feel your pain magnolia, i am 36 weeks and just got up again cos of heart burn .
sometimes it helps me to get to sleep by taking tiny sips of ice cold water, and make sure you lie slightly to your side not flat on your back! HTH xx xx

do not lie down will only help bile to rise...try ginger nuts...milk...water..bisquits

Well finally got to sleep and Guess what? Wasn't too bad but Dd3 was up and down all night so I still didn't sleep
