Heartburn....

[Lols82]

I have never suffered from this in my life, am I okay to take Gaviscon or something? I've been getting it alot the past few days and it's making me really bowky and sick at times

Gaviscon is fine, you can get it prescribed if its really bad from your gp.

 

[Lols82]

I've just had 2 glasses of milk which has helped, I'll mention to my Consultant on Tuesday its been pretty bad the past week. One of my babies is sitting as high up as he possibly can, not sure if that's making it worse.

I have it really bad- I've got some ranitidine tabs from the docs that are a GODSEND!

Hi,

I've recently started suffering with heartburn/acid reflux. I find Rennies really helpful. I also got told to try and steer clear of too much dairy and it can be hard to digest

 

[kellylou]

Milk and mints help me. Avoid choc and caffeine amd anything spicy x

I've had it on and off for weeks, since about 16 weeks or so. If it's really bothering you don't struggle on - get something from the Dr

I've been taking Tums! They help within minutes.

Gaviscon and rennies are my best friends ha I'd never had heartburn in my life before now it's horrid ... Full fat milk is also good at keeping it away xx

 

[mrz85]

yep i got it on script of my gp x

 

[Lols82]

I was at my twin clinic today and they have prescribed me ranitidine for it, see how I go.

 

[Elleyoung777]

Waaaaaaa this is driving me nuts!!

 

[queenriccy]

I'm 3 weeks In on 2 ranitidine a day with added gaviscon if I feel it coming on and I'm starting to struggle again. Is there anything stronger the doc can prescribe or will I be wasting my time going ? X

 

[kanga86]

I took omeprazole for my heartburn, not sure if it is stronger than ranitidine but could be worth switching xx

 

[kaz1983]

I drink milk but i was told by mw to try refreshers or love heart sweeties can vouch that refreshers work not overly keen on loce hearts xx

 

[hopingforbabyf]

I find milk is what sets mine off. If I have cereal for breakfast the milk repeats on me all morning.

 

[kellylou]

I need something its waking me up now. Do I have to seegp or just request it via letter

 

[Elleyoung777]

Mine has been waking me for the last week on the day 2am! I think it's my bodies way of preparing me for sleepless nights! Got midwife appointment tomorrow so going to talk to her about it. Has everyone had their Hooping couch vaccine at 28 weeks?
