gas and heartburn really bad

[FLCook]

I am 7 weeks pregnant, and I am really having trouble at night with gas, heartburn. It's almost like the gas moves to my chest when I lay down for bed (even after waiting 3 hours after eating) causing lots of pressure along with heartburn. Which wakes me up at night, causing diarrhea and a little vomiting too. This has been nothing like my last pregnancy with my son(he's 2). I almost have to sleep in the guest bedroom to prevent disturbing my husband at night with all the bathroom trips, please help!!!

I feel your pain! During my first trimester I was miserable! The gas was horrid! Thankfully my husband is very supportive and would comfort me and help me find ways to deal with it all. Unfortunately, I found no way to cope. I just had to ride it out. Try an antiacid that doubles as a calcium supplement. That really helped with the heartburn. I'm 24 weeks now and still dealing with gas and heartburn but it is not near as bad as it was. Hang in there mama! If it gets really bad, tell your doctor. There are medications that can help.

Ugh this happened with my first (a boy) a couple times but happens this pregnancy like once a month..I'm 33+3 with a girl but what I usually do if I feel it coming on is take a zantac and a phenergan..you can buy zantac at wal mart and if ur not prescribed an anti nausea medicine then you can buy some at wal mart also for that emetrol, dramamine and unisom are safe to take! Will make you sleepy though but that shouldn't matter if its happening at night!!
