Heartburn and acid reflex!

I'm being induced in one week. But I don't know if I can take much more of this heartburn and acid reflex. It's so bad I wake up multiple times in the night. Tums arent working anymore and Zantac helps a little. I can't take it! Giving birth sounds so muh better than another night of this!

Glass of water chased with a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. Preferably 30 minutes before your bedtime. Sleeping propped up also assist.

drink a big glass of milk and eat a banana or a sandwich with mustard and then sleep propped up. I had to do this for a while when my heartburn was really bad. Then I started take Omeprazol (spelling?) and it is much better but with only a week left, I don't know if it's worth starting a new medication.
