Acidity is killing me yaar, especially after dinner and at night when i lie down its the worst. Im 6 months now and dont want to keep taking anything without asking doc. What foods actually helped u settle the burning? looking for safe ghar ka options.
My doctor told me it's because the hormones relax the food pipe valve, so acid comes up. She suggested small frequent meals, prop up with an extra pillow at night, avoid citrus and caffeine. Cold milk for quick relief.
Eat smaller meals more often, that's the real trick. Coconut water, plain curd, banana, and not lying down right after eating. Spicy and fried khana was my biggest trigger, cut that and you'll feel better.
Yaar acidity in pregnancy is the worst. Actually what helped me was keeping a few almonds handy and chewing saunf after food. And honestly eating dinner early, not late at night, made a big difference.
Beta acidity is so common in pregnancy. A little cold milk, soaked saunf after meals, and chewing on it slowly used to help my daughter. Avoid very spicy and oily, and eat small portions instead of one big meal.
I had to be careful with food anyway, so for acidity I leaned on cold milk, cucumber, and oats. Sip water through the day. But if it's burning a lot at night, ask your doctor before taking any antacid.
Coconut water and a small bowl of curd rice was my comfort, calmed the burning so well. Family also gave me cold milk. If it gets too much though, do tell your gynac, they can suggest something safe.
