Heartburn

[Brown Eyed Gurl]

Hi so I know I'm not 35+ but I know alot of you here and wanted your advice.....

Ok so I'm not sure if I'm pregnant or not but just in case I don't want to take anything to harm my baby.  I'm 10 DPO and feeling very pregnant just like both times I've been pregnant before.  But I've got killer heartburn and normally I just swig some pepto and am fine but in case I'm pregnant I don't want to do that so what can you take to help when you are preg.?

I take tums too and heartburn has been the one constant this whole pregnancy.  My OB was very happy about the tums because it has the calcium you need as well.  I don't think they work super great but they do give me some relief if I take them right before bed.  
Best of luck for a BFP!!

Thanks Mel I really hope this is it.

Hey Brandi! Hang in there..I know how you feel!  I take tums, it's safe for pregnant women. And don't worry if you had a bfn, 10 dpo is early.  I just know it's your month!

Thanks I got some rolaides but will try tums next time.   It's terrible and when I don't feel the heartburn I feel like my food is trying to come up and it's stuck in my throat......not always accompanied with nausea......guessing it could be acid refulx

Tums always gives me instant relief from heartburn and the extra calcium is actually good for a developing fetus.
I hope you get your bfp!

well I just might have to do the switch.....I started spotting last cycle at 11 DPO so that tomorrow so maybe it won't happen.  I'm staying hopeful
I've got very very sore nipples
cramping and pinching ever since O
Heartburn
Headache
Nausea
extremely sleepy
and moody as all get out  I cried all the way to work today....
oh and I'm noticing more CM.....
my CD 21 progestrone was 22.9 that's higher than the month I got my BFP it was only 21.21.....so I'm hoping this is it......well I'm off to the store to get me some maalox......I'll be back soon.

[Brown Eyed Gurl]

I'm not sure really how many DPO b/c I actually missed it.....well as far as the opk but obviously not when it counted.  But it was CD 36 and CD 27 it was BFN so who knows I Od CD 16 this month so I'm CD 26 today.

[shesherm]

Brandi,
yeah 10 DPO is early.  I just know this is it for you.  When did you get BFP last time?  Hopefully Tina isnt far behind :O)

[Brown Eyed Gurl]
