Severe indigestion at nighttime

I’ve woken up with the the worst indigestion ever. Third huge glug of gaviscon and it still isn’t stopping it! Any advice welcome!

No advice but sympathy, I’m up too. I have a cold which seems to have made it worse. I can’t lie down or I feel sick. How far along are you?

@coconutlatte44 poor you! I finally dropped off after another few glugs. I’m 30 weeks; I don’t know if I can deal with another 10 weeks of this! How far along are you?

If it's not just a one off because of something you ate, and Gavin on isn't touching it, then your GP can prescribe medication to help you get through the remaining weeks.

Get your GP to prescribe you ranitidine, it works wonders! I have been taking it every day since 16 weeks and now at 35 weeks I also need one before bed. I haven't had to touch gaviscon for months as the tablets work very well. I took them in my last pregnant too.

Thanks @caffeinebuzz & @thisyeargoodyear!

I’m like a zombie at work this morning! I’m going to cal my GP now as it’s gotten far worse over the last few weeks!
