Major heartburn

Hey Girls! Does anyone have any tips that might help heartburn? I just entered my 3d trimester and i expected heartburn  but i never expected that it can practically kill you. Is there anything better than Tums?
Thank you!

Hey gal....Try OTC Pepcid..the 25 mg tabs....that's what my Dr. told me to take....It helps SOME.....doesn't alleviate it 100% but makes it more bearable!  :o)

I use Maalox and it works pretty good.  The tums did nothing for me at all.  So I tried the Maalox and find it works pretty fast and you don't have to keep taking more.  Hope that helps, Good Luck..
