I was drinking milk to help mine but it never worked fast enough or long enough, so i bought tums. I felt my heartburn coming on so i chewed two and it was like a miracle. No heartburn! I love em!

Over the counter Zantac! My doctor recommended it with my first child bc i had heart burn so bad i couldn't breath, sleep, get comfy at all. Take one in the AM before or after you eat & it works! Take as needed, but if its flaring up again at night you can take another one. They have different strengths, my doctor said all were fine. They even have cool mint flavor now so as it slides down your throat it feels cool & minty. Hope you get some relief.

Rennies. If its soo bad your doc might prescribe omeprazole. I take them due to a stomach condition, I still get heartburn a bit though.

I found out tomato products were a huge heartburn trigger for me with my first baby, so I avoided them. Also, some positions, like sitting upright, brought it on. So try to find a food trigger or a position to avoid. Might ease it up.

Maybe your baby will not be bald ;) I read somewhere there might be a link between heartburn and hair on the baby - same hormone causes both.
