safe heartburn remedies?

I was diagnosed with acid reflux years ago so I have been on medication for heartburn for quite a while. when I found out I was pregnant the doctor took me off of my medication so the heartburn is back ten times worse due to being pregnant. the doctor told me I can take Tums or Rolaids or Maalox and none of it seems to work, I'm popping Tums and Rolaids every 5 minutes its horrible does anybody have any solutions? I've cut out pop, chocolate and all the other things they recommend and it's still not helping.

Tums are really safe for heartburn during your pregnancy, I usually take them dont need them alot but there the safe ones for pregnancy since other brands might contain penicillin.

I had heartburn REALLY bad when I was s pregnant with my daughter and drinking milk really helped me. Don't drink or eat acidic things.
