I'm five weeks too and it was nothing but intense heartburn every time I ate or drank anything until a few days ago. Everywhere I've read says that tums are perfectly okay to take. I've gone through a bottle already so thankfully the heartburn has considerably lessened.
Your not suppose to take tums when your pregnant . I have really bad heart burn and I'm 38 weeks. It probably started around 20 weeks . But my dr gave me a prescription for Zantac and it helps a lot . I know you can get the knock off brand at like Sam's Club or maybe walmart .
Actually my doctor was the one who recommended it for heartburn...it's like literally a pinch of baking soda in 8 oz of water. I did it my entire pregnancy and my baby its fine. I'm pretty sure if I wasn't supposed to take it, they wouldn't tell me I could...but alright lol
Thanks @queenwrath congrats to you also , and I will defiantly be getting tums
You're not supposed to have baking side while pregnant
Not too early for it. Really any of the symptoms can come and go throughout your pregnancy. I had heart burn around 16-17 weeks and then again at 29-current (31+2) ive found eating less acidic food helps and I keep tums on me where ever I go cause it just come on out of nowhere
Yeah, I'm around 5 weeks too and the heartburn, omg. I found that chewing tums is pretty much all I can do to settle my stomach. Congrats BTW!
Tums, drink water with some baking soda or zantac...
