What to eat when you have heartburn during pregnancy?
The heartburn has become so bad in my third trimester, especially at night I cant even lie down properly. Looking for some food ideas that actually help. What worked for you all?
Hey, don't stress too much, almost every pregnant woman goes through this! Just keep some cold buttermilk or vanilla ice cream handy, they really cool down the stomach. Avoid eating late at night and you'll feel much better, trust me.
Yaar, heartburn was the worst part of my pregnancy, actually. Cold milk and coconut water really saved me! Try to avoid heavy spicy masala food and don't lie down immediately after eating, it makes a huge difference.
When I was at my parents' house, my mom used to give me a small cup of cold milk whenever I felt that burning sensation. She also advised me to sit upright for at least half an hour after dinner. It really helped me sleep peacefully.
My saas told me to chew on a little bit of saunf (fennel seeds) after meals, and honestly, it worked like magic for my acidity. Also, she made sure I drank fresh coconut water every morning. Try these simple home tips, they are very safe.
Cut out the oily and spicy food completely if you are facing severe heartburn. Drink plenty of water throughout the day, but avoid drinking too much during meals. If it still doesn't get better, ask your gynac for a safe antacid syrup.
