When I was preggers with my second, tums helped, but not all the time. So far this time they have helped though. Thanks. Just dont buy the sugar free ones, they are GROSS!!!! ick!!!

Hi Ladies, I have REALLY bad heartburn all day everyday! LOL
TUMS are Magic and you can have up to 5 or 6 a day and they taste great!

Hope it helps!

Really? Coke? I will have to remember that. It seems to me that it would make it worse, but thanks for the tip. I will definitely keep that one in mind as it tends to come and go for the rest of my pregnancy.

Tell me about it. I have never even had it as bad as you did, but it sure can be painful. Have you found anything to help it? I heard that there are some over the counter meds like um, gosh I can't think today at all. Anyways, I know there are those one a day heartburn relief meds that are okay to take while preggers.
