acid reflux is killing me!!!

[BabyGABsMom]

Anybody on here taking protonix for acid reflux. Since I started my third trimester I've been having the worst acid reflux/gas EVER! I can't sleep, I can't eat. The third trimester seems to be worst for me than the last two. Was thinking about taking some protonix that I have from my job but I read its a class B drug with no proven side effects to baby.

Thank you ladies, I've tried a few of the natural remedies that you guys have recommended and started eating smaller portions and even though I still get it from time to time the symptoms have improved significantly. Now I have sciatic nerve pain :-/ this third trimester is going to be a rough one

I am 35 weeks and have been on protonix since about 8 weeks or so. It is a life saver. I would still definitely call your doctor and find out what they want you to do.

I have the acid reflux nightmare myself. I have taken so many tums I should by stock in the company lol. It's just one of the less than pleasantries we must cope with. Thank God I've only got 9 weeks and 3 days to go.

I've been having acid reflux for a while. I don't think my doctor will prescribe anything to me. It's annoying to eat and have some of the food come back up. Then I just get a feeling in my throat. My friend told me to boil some fresh ginger. I'll have to get some and see if that works.

Ask your dr whats best. They told me zantec til that stopped working and then they told me to take prilosec which has helped a lot but apparently i have gerd so I've gotta work with that.
