heartburn

[mommysfirstblessing]

They say that when u have heartburn that your baby is growing hair I'm 16 weeks 4 days and if that is true my baby is going to come out looking like chubaca lol the Dr gave me nexium and I also have tums and nothing is helping any suggestions

[mommysfirstblessing]

Hmm I will have to try the peppermint hopefully it helps and are you putting the banking soda in the milk?  Oh and I plan to use goats milk if for some reason I can't breastfeed do you dilute it with water any? And what's the cost compared to formula?

I had trouble heartburn work both pregnancies and they both came our with A LOT of hair... my daughter's hair was touching her shoulders. The only thing that helped the burn was baking soda in some warm water and goat milk. Sounds gross,  I know,  however,  if you can get it fresh it really isn't bad. It even ended up being the ONLY thing my son could keep down long enough to gain some weight.

Eat peppermint candy made with real peppermint oil. That's the only thing that helps me. Even tums don't work. And I think it's true because with my first two girls I had the worst heartburn and they were little monkeys lol and this time I have heartburn but not as bad so we will see lol

It's an old wivestale. I had heartburn pretty much my whole pregnancy and my daughter was born bald. But chocolate milk works great, because both chocolate and milk are more basic than acidic on the ph scale.

Lmao.. but I'm in the same boat.  Nothing works for me either. Makes me throw up it gets so bad.  Maybe try drinking a coke or Pepsi? That some what helps me sometimes. Btw don't drink water when you have it. It makes it worse

Sprite helps me and chamomile tea helps too.

Lol I know it's just a wives tale but it is so bad that if it was true my baby would seriously look like I stole a cast member from planet of the apes lol but like nothing seems to be helping not tums not nexium I tried mustard bread candy everything and nothing is helping not even sitting up do yall have any other suggestions I can't have milk I'm lactose intolerance

There have actually been studies that show that to be true. Not always right for everyone though. I've been having horrible heartburn as well. And I mean it feels like lava in my stomach all the way up my esophagus then the bubble bursts in my throat it's disgustingly painful. Eating a bowl of cereal has been helping me lately.

With my oldest son I had no heartburn & he had soooo much hair,  & my last little boy I suffered extremely bad with it. He was bald as hell lol just got some hair a few months ago. He's almost two haha.
