Oh geez, i have been getting such horrible heartburn *every day*!!!

Anyone else feeling my pain? Cool

I don't know if this is stupid or not, but i heard that if you have bad heartburn when you're pregnant, the baby is going to have a lot of hair. my mom said she had heartburn when she was pregnant with me, and i had a full head of hair!

I have had 2 other children, last one 8 1/2 years ago, I had BAD heartburn with both of them to the point I slept in a recliner chair the last couple months of pregnancy. I am now prego with twins and same thing, bread gives me heartburn, EVERYTHING gives me heartburn and all day long pretty much. One thing that soothes is a glass of milk. My doc also said Zantac is ok to take, so I have been taking 1 at night before bed for about a week now and I haven't woken up to chomp on Tums in the middle of the night!!!!
Maybe I found my saving grace!!!!

I do feel for you!

I had extreme heart burn my last few months of pregnancy and my Doctor said to take tums but then I got constipation from the tums I found soda crackers to work best for me. Soda crackers were a life saver my entire pregnancy.

I had a baby with very little hair, it was more just peach fuzz when she was born and she is now 11 months and has only a little bit of hair.

I had a moderate amount of heartburn, but only when I ate things that would give anyone heartburn, and my boy was born with tons of dark hair.

My heartburn is horrendous. I've had quite the breezy pregnancy besides the heartburn.
I can't even eat dorito's and I want them so bad. If I drink anything too fast I get it.
It comes and it goes but I have tears from it at least once a day!

I think i'm retaining a little bit of water, but it's hard to tell. i only really notice it when i try to take my rings off at night... i can only take them off if i run my finger under water first. lol and then the other night after i took my socks off, it looked like my ankles were chubbier than the rest of my legs. so yeah, i guess i *am* retaining water Laughing .
