Well, I suppose the myth Is true for me. I started havin' horrible heartburn and acid reflux towards the late second trimester, beginning of my third trimester, I don't remember the exact week It started, sorry. But before that, I didn't have any heartburn and reflux until then. My baby boy came out with a full head of hair!

Both my sons were bald. And I had heartburn. It has more to do with ethnicity then it does heart burn

All my babies are born with a full head of hair. With my son I had heartburn real bad and he had lots of hair. :) I don't believe the myth really I think it just genetics lol but I am 34+2 and my baby has some hair already.

I think its false. Ive had heartburn from day one and there is no way the baby had hair then plus they have that fine hair (langua) covering there body when they get to a certain week. Cant remember which one. It gets on my nerves everytime I say something about heartburn someone says your baby is gonna have a head full of hair. I want to say you dont know. But I just laugh and go on. Plus I have suffered from heartburn the past few years not just durimg pregnancy, its just worse.
