Get gaviscon off ur midwife or doc. U can even get from pharmacy but it is expensive. Ask doc for it instead

I wouldnt try a lemon if I was you,  the valve in your stomach slackens in pregnancy making acid leak (something like that) which is why drinking coke or similar things give you worse acid. Lemons are obviously Very acidic!! I ate loads during my first pregnancy, gave me really bad heartburn and thrush in my mouth from the acid killing good bacteria. If I was you I would try full fat milk, double cream or gaviscon although gaviscon is about £8 a bottle. I am suffering from very bad acid this time round and all 3 work very well for me. Hope this helps you.
