Period is a few days late and these days i feel so much jalan in my chest after eating, kabhi nahi hua tha pehle. Curious if heartburn can be an early sign or im just reading too much into it. anyone experienced this?
Yes, it definitely can be! I had crazy heartburn even before my positive test 😅 Just try sipping cold milk or having small meals, it works wonders. All the best to you! 🌸
Yes, it actually can be due to progesterone hormone which relaxes the valve between stomach and food pipe, allowing acid to come up. My doctor explained that as the baby grows, it also pushes the stomach up, causing more heartburn. Eat small, frequent meals to help manage it.
Heartburn is a common early symptom, but please be careful if it is accompanied by severe chest pain or vomiting. During my difficult pregnancy, my doctor advised keeping a close check on any persistent acidity to rule out other issues. Do mention it to your gynac to get a safe antacid if needed.
Oh my god, I have been dealing with such bad heartburn lately, is anyone else experiencing this in their second trimester? It literally gets worse when I lie down at night. I didn't realize it could start so early!
When I was at my mum's house, she told me that heartburn is very common because of body heat and hormonal changes. She used to give me a small cup of cold fennel water (saunf pani) after lunch, which helped soothe my throat so much. Simple home remedies really save the day.
