3rd trimester here and the burning feeling after eating is killing me yaar. It happens even with normal food now. why does this happen in pregnancy? anyone else going through same?
When I was delivering at Fortis, the dieticians there told me that propped-up sleeping positions and eating dinner 3 hours before bed prevent heartburn. If it gets uncomfortable, just ask your doctor during your next visit, they can write a safe syrup. Don't hesitate to call the hospital desk if it's too bad.
Oh god, heartburn was my constant companion, especially at 2 AM when I just wanted to sleep! Honestly, it feels like your chest is on fire because of hormones and the baby taking up all the space. Just eat small meals and keep antacids handy if you ever want to sleep!
My mother-in-law suggested drinking cold milk or buttermilk (chaas) to soothe the heartburn, which is actually very effective. But my doctor also explained that hormonal changes slow down digestion, leading to acidity. Trust your gynac if it gets too severe, but natural remedies are great.
Arey, pregnancy me gas aur jalan hona bahut normal hai kyunki bacha andar jagah leta hai. Humare yahan toh dadi bolti hain thoda sa thanda doodh pee lo, turant aaram milta hai. Bahut jyada mirch-masala mat khao aur thoda thoda karke khao.
My pregnancy app showed that progesterone hormone relaxes the valve between your stomach and esophagus, causing acid to splash up. Also, as the baby grows, your uterus literally pushes your stomach upwards! Tracking my meals on the app really helped me identify my triggers.
I had severe acid reflux which actually triggered some breathing issues during my third trimester, so I am very cautious about it. Please don't ignore severe heartburn or take random over-the-counter medicines. It is always safest to consult your doctor for a proper antacid prescription.
