The acidity in this pregnancy is killing me, especially at night i can barely lie down. I have my regular antacid at home but scared to take anything now without checking. Planning to ask my gynac but wanted to hear ur experiences first.
For mild acidity my mom gave me cold milk or a bit of cold coconut water and it soothed me. For actual medicine I only took what my doctor okayed. Gentle home things first, doctor for the rest na.
Some antacids are considered okay in pregnancy but not all, so I wouldnt just pick one off the shelf. My doctor told me which brand was safe for me. Best to ask your gynac before taking any, even for acidity.
Acidity was brutal for me, I get it. Before any antacid I tried eating small meals, avoiding spicy stuff and not lying down right after food, that helped. For the actual medicine, my doctor recommended a safe one, please ask yours too.
I used a doctor approved antacid in both pregnancies for the burning. Dont take random ones on your own though, get the name from your gynac. Also small frequent meals reduce the need for it.
