heart burn!

I have had heart burn for the past 24 hours!  I don't think what I am eating is bad--I am not eating any spicy or food that is acidic (with the exception of chocolate, because giving up that is worse than the heartburn).  Any suggestions for relief?

Tums are my best friend these days. On the bottle it says not to take more than 3 a day, but my doctor said 5 - 6 a day, depending on how bad it is. But really, Tums is a good option!

I gave my baby the nick name " BABY TUMS"  lol.  I never leave home with out TUMS.  I never threw up or anything..... just heart burn and swelling.  Its normal.  Never lay down after you eat.  It makes it worse.  Milk help me.  God Bless, Anita
