What can I take for heartburn while pregnant?

What do you guys take for heart burn and puking? I’m 29 weeks pregnant. I puke at least 4 times a day if not more including in the night. I don’t sleep, I don’t like to eat much bc I’m just going to puke it up later. It’s not nausea though it’s heartburn that causes it. I’ve tried every otc meds, pickle juice, lemon water, mints. Even water gives me issues. I’m at my wits end. I never have clean clothes bc any time I puke I pee every where even through pads. I don’t go anywhere very much bc I will more thank likely puke on the way there from heartburn. I’m suffering.

Try the alkaseltzer chews for heartburn. I also hate tums and they were much easier for me when I was pregnant

A pinch of baking soda in a glass of water helped me the most.

Tums. I’m due in 10 days and I live religiously off tums

I would suggest calling your OB. Most have a 24 hour nurse line you can call. There’s a limited medication list because otcs like Pepto can cause a miscarriage.

I was approved omezprazole while pregnant. It has made life so much better. But quick relief I’ll try alittle baking soda and warm water.

Take a shot of apple cider vinegar believe it or not it works

My doctor said tums were safe but if they aren’t helping try pepcid

Baking soda with a Lil water

1-2 Pepcid a day is perfectly safe.

More tums it’s just calcium I was told it’s good. When my son was 2 ate half a bottle of tums called poison control and they said its fine it’s not gonna do anything. I ate ritz crackers all the time for heartburn.

Many years ago, I took wintergreen Lifesavers that did help
