Heartburn from hell!

[Duerrgirl]

Okay so this pregnancy I had to start daily a daily heartburn pill at 16 weeks well I'm now having horrible heartburn even with the meds. I've tried everything I can think of even testing for certain food triggers but nothing is helping.
Anybody else have this happen?

Thanks, I'm already in Prilosec so maybe they will switch me because I can't handle feeling like this much longer

I had the same problem beginning at around 20 weeks and the heartburn only intensified the further into the pregnancy I got, to the point that I couldn't keep any food down. I talked to my doctor and he gave me a once a day prescription of Prilosec. That didn't work so he switched me to Zantac, and when that stopped working he increased my dose go twice a day. That has been the most successful for me. Talk to your doctor again, and he/she can help you figure out something that works best for you.

Yes,My wife is in the 22 week of her first pregnancy and she is suffering from unbelievable heartburn
We asked our doctor and he advised her to take some medicine in addition to avoid all spicy and hot foods.
I also tried some other ways with her like eating a lot of banana and drinking cold milk and sour milk and it is work
