I'm so sorry Hon, that really suxs

I get it even when I'm not preggas, it's 10 times worse when I am though. I even tried Zantac and it did nothing, so I have to take Losec.

Stay away from Hot drinks and food for atleast 4 hours before going to bed and try to sleep in a sitting up position. Almonds help too, but stay away from dairy products because even though milk relieves it temporarly, it is high in acid and will aggrivate it not long after. Milk is meant for cows which have 4 stomaches, so digesting it with one stomach which is being pushed up by an expanding uterus is going to cause pain.

Awww hon...I've always heard that if you have heartburn a lot when pregnant the baby will have a lot of hair...don't know how true it is.

Both boys had a ton of hair and I didn't have heartburn. But this time, good lordy! I took a zantec last night cos the host of bunko is pregnant and she gets it all the time. It helped for a while, but came back when I laid down. I am starting to feel the first twinges of it this morning.
