I have just found out that I am pregnant and I was wondering why I have such bad heartburn? It gets so bad that I can't get out of bed. I am about two or three months along. If there is anything you can help on please do. Are there any over the counter drugs that will help and still be safe for the baby?
Heartburn, usually occurs later in pregnancy when the baby presses up against the stomach. Food doesn't digest properly and the stomach's release of digestive juices are lessened. It is commonly relieved by antacids, such as Tums and sleeping in a more upright position. I suggest for my clients that they take digestive enzymes if they are prone to this problem. Indigestion and heartburn or trapped gas can be caused by the food not being digested. I am surprised you can't get out of bed it hurts so much, since with severe heartburn, one cannot lie down. Have your practitioner investigate if it is true heartburn or not.
