Stay away from coffee and chocolate?!?!?  Aw, man!!  Not that I have much of either, but when I have them, I RELISH them.  Dag nab it. 

I've found a glass of milk helps (and it's good for baby's bones) - I ordered "a tall trim milk, thankyou" with as much dignity as I could muster at a turkish restaurant in the weekend, and I don't lie down just after eating a meal.  Also, garlic is off the menu now (learned that the unpleasant way) and while I still persevere with my OJ, it does set off the reflux.  It sux, eh!

*cough* Titralac *cough* They are a generic antacid that you can only get from the chemist, but don't need a prescription for, I find them quite good. I second milk and yoghurt, but found they don't last as long. Have also used Quickeze, and there is a homeopathic remedy out there that you can just spray into your mouth which is quite good - Hardy's or somewhere like that would have it (think the brand is Biochemics ??). Some advice my midwife gave me that I've found really useful as well is to try and not drink anything half an hour either side of eating a meal, as it makes the food softer and hence able to come back up a lot quicker. Plus with all the relaxin floating around in your system it affects your digestive muscles as well as everything else. ]]> Wed, 07 Jun 2006 18:13:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2744&PID=51119&title=heartburn-help#51119 <![CDATA[Heartburn help!?!?!? : man I am the queen on indigestion...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2744&PID=51097&title=heartburn-help#51097 Author: my2angels

man I am the queen on indigestion and reflux! I get it pregnant or not. Milk is great as is ice cream (thats my excuse for why i go through almost a tub a week anyway) titralic (sp) is the best thing I have found thats safe during pregnancy. You can get it from a chemist ($12 for 100) or get your midwife to prescribe it for you ($15 for 200) well thats the prices in chch anyway. Raise your pillows or bed if possible, I currently have 5 pillows holding me up. Try not to bend your neck/throat to much, keep straight from the shoulders. Try to keep you throat higher than your body so bend from the knees rather than bending down as this can cause the bile or whatever it is to come back into your throat. Bread is setting me off at the moment but also oj can do it to along with the normal spicy foods etc. Oh and dont eat just before going to bed, wait at least half an hour. Hope some of this helps]]> Wed, 07 Jun 2006 16:57:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2744&PID=51097&title=heartburn-help#51097 <![CDATA[Heartburn help!?!?!? : gaviscon has been great for me!...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2744&PID=51060&title=heartburn-help#51060 Author: mrs frantic

I wish I had some advice - if I did I would use it myself! I am guzzling Mylanta tabs atm, but they aren't really helping much.
I find bread and carbs tend to set it off which is a huge pain in the a** as I am trying t9o snack healthy on things like sandwiches and toast.
Icecream at night seems to help before bed, or yoghurt. Plus it gives me something to line my stomach when I take my multivits (I tak ethem at night coz they make me sick)]]> Wed, 07 Jun 2006 11:58:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2744&PID=51009&title=heartburn-help#51009 <![CDATA[Heartburn help!?!?!? : Hey ladies I was wondering if...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2744&PID=51008&title=heartburn-help#51008 Author: bekkie
