2nd trimester and the acidity is bohot bad, burning feeling after almost every meal. I dont want to take anything without asking my gynac first. How did u all manage this, any food tips that helped?
Have faith dear, this phase will pass. Try sipping warm cumin (jeera) water in the morning to soothe your digestion. Stay positive and take care of your health.
Walking for 15-20 minutes after meals really improved my digestion, but only do light walks if your doctor has allowed physical activity. Avoid heavy meals and drink plenty of water throughout the day.
Oh, gastritis during pregnancy is so painful, I feel your pain dear! Try having a little cold milk or fennel seeds (saunf) water, it really calms the stomach. Take care of yourself.
Gastritis is very common due to hormonal changes, especially if you have a history of hormonal issues like PCOS. I found that avoiding fried food and eating simple dahi chawal helped, but please consult your doctor before taking any gas medicine.
Haan na, acidity and gas is a big headache in pregnancy. Try drinking buttermilk or coconut water daily, ho na? It gives instant relief to the burning chest.
For gas, small frequent meals are the best. Be careful with coconut water or flavored drinks if you have sugar issues, just stick to plain water, thin buttermilk, and simple home food.
Stop having spicy foods and large meals altogether. Eat small portions every 2-3 hours, and drink cold milk or coconut water, it works like a charm. If it's too severe, ask your gynac for a safe antacid.
Actually yaar, gastritis was my constant companion in the 2nd trimester. Eating dinner early and taking a slow walk around the room helped me a lot. Don't lie down immediately after eating, that makes it worse!
