holy heartburn

I've never had heartburn before the other night. When it woke me up. It's back tonight.
I eat every two hours, no soda, no spicy foods..
I tried drinking milking and propping my head up..but it's not relieving it.

What are natural ways to get rid of heart burn?

The only thing that worked for me was a drink of milk. I have had rly bad heartburn the entire time. Lit could drink water and have heartburn.

Weird! Had the same thing last night! Nothing worked, I even had a prescription I got before. Tums bananas and milk, no help. I was a little limited being midnight on a holiday. I almost took myself to the ER, it was so bad. Anyway, I'm going to keep these other ideas in mind!

I take Tums throughout the day. It helps me not have it at night.

This is going to sound crazy but I've had heartburn so bad at times my chest hurt. It would wake me up multiple times a night and I'd have straight acid washing into my mouth which obviously then made me nauseous. My crazy remedy? Strawberry jello. No lie. I eat one of those jello cups. It goes away and doesn't come back. Tums I found would work for a couple hours then there I'd be again in pain. I thought it was coincidence but I started testing my theory and googled. Turns out I'm not the only one! Try it! And if it doesn't work you still have yummy jello :D

Milk definitely worked for me! Mustard works as well....swallow a table spoon of mustard. Good luck; having heartburn is so annoying!

It was heartburn that had me guessing I was pregnant again last October. The only time I get heartburn.
Honestly tums is very natural all it really is is calcium and that's all I use plus milk. Yogurt works well and bananas ! for me at least it has! Good luck

I tried all the natural remedies to no avail. Then I bought Tums. It says on the label that it's safe for pregnancy. I was so thankful.

Other then what you are already doing, there really isn't any natural way that will help. I drank about a bottle of mylanta a week with my first son. He came out about a hairy as a monkey :) With my second pregnacy I am using Zantac and am much happier, definitely worth the try.
