Hi, does anyone have any recommendations to stop heartburn? I’ve been struggling for months but the last few days it’s been extremely bad… nothing will soothe it😣 I’ve tried Rennie and gaviscon, having a small drink of milk, I only drink water throughout the day (except when I’ve tried the milk to soothe it), I’m not eating anything overly fatty or sugary
I’m at a point where I get 5 minutes of soothing from Rennie or gaviscon and then I’m in agony from it again x

Get omeprezol from dr xx

someone told my friend to try eating refreshers (the sweets) when she was struggling with it because they helped her when she was pregnant, didn’t try it myself but a few people did say it helped x

I will definitely try get into my doctors on Monday and see if they’ll prescribe me this! Thank you x

aw I wouldn’t have thought they would help as they’re fizzy aren’t they? I’ll give it a go this weekend because I won’t be able to speak to the doctors now until Monday, thank you x

I sucked of polo mints was a life saver

they should give it ypu rennie etc took the edge off but that was the only thing to actually prevent it xc

I thought it was weird but apparently they did help her a lot of people also say pickle juice helps a lot as well x

Love heart sweets may also have similar effect iv been told. I also have suffered and just have been told to take another if the one tablet isn't doing it ( I like the mint chewables) x

Gaviscon mint chewable that it sorry....love hearts iv just been told from a friend x

Milk

Mine was chewing gum xx

The doctors gave me omperazole and its a life saver, ide definitely try go doctors xx

Trebor mints the hard ones. They saved me through two pregnancies 😂😂😂

Next time your at the midwife’s ask her if she can get the doctor to prescribe you some, the doctor wouldn’t prescribe me stuff on their own due to trying to save nhs costs but the midwife will sort it, or use gaviscon original as I was advised that was safer during pregnancy. Hope you get sorted x

Honestly for my first and now my second pregnancy I’ve found Gaviscon to help 🤣 drink it out the bottle!, heart burn is the worst, doctors will prescribe if you ask

I just wanted to give a little update, I managed to get some refreshers last night… they’ve worked! Considering I’ve tried rennie’s and gaviscon (both liquid and the chewables) and milk (suggested by my midwife), they only worked for 5 minutes… I was a bit unsure if they would work with them having like a fizzy taste but😱 finally some relief when I’ve suffered with it for months🤣 x
