acid reflex/ heart burn

So as this pregnancy progresses so does my acid reflex and heart burn. At night is wen it gets the worst and wen I wake up I still have it. Anything help cause milk isn't doin the trick for me :/ theu always say that creates hair on your baby and I agree cause my first was the same way but only wen I ate spicy foods, this cravings are different and no spicy food but this acid reflex is killing me

Tell your doctor, he/she can tell you home remedies or write you a prescription. Protonix has been a life saver for me. Omeprezole is also good (and safe for the baby) and can be bought at CVS, Walmart, or Target.

Yea I normally try to stay away from the acidic foods and always eat somethin to contradict it like fruit, ice cream or a bowl of cereal but never helps.

Try to avoid any greasy, spicy, and acidic foods. That's like lime and oranges. And walk a bit after each meal so your food digests a bit more also eat smaller portions. Hope you feel better I know the times I get it I feel horrible.
