I am the same way take some milk of magnesa

Tums!!!!! That was the only thing my doc and pharmacist said I could take. My heartburn was so bad near the end that even if I drank water i'd get it and it would wake me up, the gurgling would get so loud it would wake hubby up too. I just kept tums near me at all times, but read the label, cause it says how many pregnant women can take. Just be happy to know the minute the baby is born it disappears!

Have you tried lifting the head of your bed a few inches? If not, get somebody to put some sturdy blocks a couple of inches thick under the frame at the head of your bed. That lets gravity keep the acid in your stomach. I would talk to your ob/gyn about it... If it's that bad, they'll prolly give you something else? By the way, how's your diet? Cut out caffeine, spicy foods, chocolate and most things acidic... That may help a little too.

The list of safe over the counter medications that I got from the health departments says that you can take tums, rolaids, maalox, or mylanta for heartburn.
