Acidity is killing me yaar, especially after dinner and at night. Im in my second trimester and this burning feeling is just constant. How do u all manage it?
Oh, acidity can be so uncomfortable, I totally understand. Please talk to your doctor about it, they can suggest safe options. For me, avoiding spicy and oily foods, and taking small meals, really made a difference. Take care, beta.
Acidity is very common, don't worry. Try to eat smaller meals throughout the day and avoid lying down immediately after eating. Identifying trigger foods like spicy or very fatty items can help. If it's severe, your gynac can prescribe antacids that are safe for pregnancy.
My pregnancy app had a section on common ailments, and acidity was a big one. It suggested avoiding citrus, tomatoes, and caffeine, and eating slowly. Tracking my meals in the app sometimes showed me patterns for what triggered my acidity, which was helpful.
I had terrible acidity, I actually panicked thinking something was really wrong! But it's super common in pregnancy. I found drinking warm milk or a little ajwain water really helped. Also, try to sleep with your head slightly elevated, that makes a difference too.
Acidity was quite common for me too. What helped a lot was eating small, frequent meals instead of big ones. I also found that drinking sips of cold milk or a bit of fennel seed water after meals sometimes gave relief. It definitely gets better after delivery, hang in there!
OMG I felt like I was constantly on fire with acidity during my first trimester! It was horrible. I found that eating very bland food, avoiding anything fried or spicy, and drinking lots of water helped. Slices of cucumber and coconut water were my saviours sometimes.
