I bought bisodol when I was 6 weeks as I prone to it when pregnant also get a lot of indigestion! Anyways, asked tesco pharmacy if it's ok if your pregnant and they said yes. I had a bout of indigestion in the middle of the night last week and I'm normally in agony with it but I took one of the bisodols and 10 minuttes later it went! Couldn't believe it! Although I noticed on the box that I got to check with the doctor if I'm pregnant before taking them so that worried me a little! I only took one and haven't had any more indigestion or heartburn so i think I will check with the midwife before I take any more!

With my 2nd son I was known to drinks tons and tons of milk...I would get heartburn at the drop of a hat even if we were just travelling somewhere 10 mins down the road I had to get him to stop in the garage for a pint! We call my son the milky bar kid now as he's so white! Lol

hope the gaviscon clears it up for you xx

Ive had it really bad especially at the beginning of the pregnancy its horrible if i eat or drink i got it and i tried the gaviscon tabs chewable and they were proper rank lol.
I Couldnt eat spiceys foods ie...... spicey wedges or chicken curry pot noodle lol cos that would really kick it off the heartburn .

It has died down alot its only when i now eat spicey foods that i get bad heartburn its still horrible when i get it though.

Although im having a boy and people have thought i was going to have a boy with bad heartburn but not sure if thats 100% lol.

It should die down if not go to chemist or ask gp what is better for it to get rid of it an that you actually like it. Although i didnt use anything i just put up with it i know its hard lol.
Gud luck an hope you find something to help you xx

I get it terrible no matter what i eat or even drink! My doctor has prescribed me gaviscon but that only helps to a certain degree. xx

I take rennies as I can't stand gaviscon and they seem to work for me.

Feeling for all you girls with heartburn and indigestion...

I got this this time round and I am pretty sure it was from my pregnancy vitamins , the pregnacare ones the boxes that also have the extra capsules of omega 3 etc I think they come in a fish oil etc?

Any of you on these ones? I have brought the plain pregnacare ones for trying again this time.

Gah I get the heartburn too. Mostly at night. And I can't take Gaviscon cause it triggers off my morning sickness. -_- So I usually just drink a glass of milk and it goes away.

I have been getting some heartburn too, ended up swigging out of the gaviscon bottle last week. I seem to have some days it's troublesome and others are no problem. I'm my own worst enemy, full fat fizzy juice makes it worse but I'm loving it just now, aw well! Eh, milk helped a bit, I only drink the red topped one though. I haven't really tried anything else though!

mine has kicked in with a vengance this time around i found ginger biscuits good something minty sometimes works but i found i got bad heartburn if hungry so i eat soup and it seems to settle well, but basically some form of an antacid helps as it settles it down to normal levels good luck its a killer aint it xxxxxxxx

 

[ashtonsmum]

o yes and avoid fizzy drinks etc makes it so much worse xxx
