Definitely a myth! All 3 of my girls were born with a head full of hair and I am 30wks with my 4th girl that regular and 3D ultrasound can see another HEAD FULL of hair and I have not had heart burn. I did hear that eating bananas or drinking chamomile tea might help with heart burn though. Good luck to you :)

My sis got sick after every single thing she ate while pregnant. She had heart burn like no other! When my nephew was born he definitely needed a hair cut! Lol

I'm with schenner2. I had heartburn with both of my girls and they came out with very little hair and we're practically bald until 2 as well. I have a lot of heartburn this time too so we will see if she comes out with a head full of hair or not!

I didn't have heart burn once with my first and she was born with a head FULL of hair!! So I definitely say it's a myth.

Babies are covered with a fine hair until closer to time to be born. Forgot what it's called. I had heart burn real ba with my son but I have always suffered from heartburn. It was just worse during pregnancy. My son did have hair but not a lot. I don't think the hair has anything to do with it. It's just a myth.

Seems like this is the only researched myth that is true.. good luck for your little one with lots of hair..

I sometimes feel like mine will turn out to be like a bear or something, with the kind of heartburn I've had throughout..
