Please tell me the heartburn goes when you have the baby!?

[BingerGiscuit]

I’m 34 and have gone my whole life without knowing what heartburn feels like... until I fell pregnant! Don’t get me wrong, I feel mightily blessed to be pregnant but oh my god the heartburn! Please tell me it goes 😂😭

Yes it does! In the meantime milkshakes are an instant relief and omeprazole a complete life changer! You can buy it over the counter but Shoild be able to get a prescription for it!

Yes! It goes straight away from what I can remember

It sure does. Double action gaviscon tablets.

Yup, instant relief. If you’re not taking anything for it yet, do.

Yes and no.
The crippling, horrible there every night heartburn definitely goes as soon as your stomach isn't being pushed up high. But i'm still a little prone to it if I lie on my right side and eat too late at night.

Thank GOD for that! There is light at the end of the tunnel 😂
Gaviscon liquid does seem to do the trick but doesn’t last long! The tablets just get all stuck in my teeth 😂

@DrMadelineMaxwell did you have it before you were pregnant?
Suppose I should be grateful I went 34 years without it 😂

GP can prescribe omeprazole which will make it go away completely.

Yep was evening having Gaviscon in labour with dd. Never had heartburn again until I was pregnant with ds but gaviscon didn't cut it this time and got omeparzole from the dr. One tablet a day and I never had heartburn again until I missed a tablet. Never made that mistake again 😂

It instantly goes, such a relief

Seriously, get your GP to prescribe you omeprazole. I thought it wouldn't make a difference but it really helped me when pregnant. I had horrendous heartburn because twin 2 was lying under my ribs and this helped so much. Oh and it went literally as soon as my babies were born.

Mine went instantly after my c section. It was such a relief!

Yes don't worry! Never had it before pregnancy and never had it again after giving birth.

Every side effect (sickness etc) stops as soon as you have the baby.

Another vote for omeprazole, it’s amazing.

Yep, first pregnancy not too bad had lots of the chewable tablets. Second pregnancy worse, "gave in" and got prescribed omeprazole which was amazing. Should have done it sooner.

Maybe it’s a Maxwell thing but like @DrMadelineMaxwell, I had never had it before but since I have been more prone to it if I eat spicy or tomato based food too late at night.

Every time I get a little bit of heartburn now I immediate panic that I’m pregnant 😂 But don’t fear OP, it’s got nothing on pregnancy heartburn!

Good god, the pregnancy heartburn was horrendous! I ended up sleeping sitting up most of the time 😂 the money I spent on rennes was ridiculous.

It goes instantly.

I feel like I'm getting heartburn right now just remembering it 😂 it was AWFUL. 🤣

Yes it goes instantly

Yep.
I didn't need to do a pregnancy test with DS2. I got heartburn and constipation before I could do one, and both stopped immediately after he was born.

Yes! But be prepared for hot sweats at night with hormone surges, especially if you are breast feeding. The fun never ends now you know!

Yes it goes straight away. Hang on on there, you'll be ok.
Gaviscon did nothing at all for me, I found Rennies much more effective

Gaviscon did nothing for me . Loved omeprazole only had to take it once. It defo goes!! It seems like a faded distant memory now

Thank you everyone! ❤️

@AudTheDeepMinded yeah I had a feeling the fun never stops 🤣
