Just entered 2nd trimester and havent felt heartburn yet, but my sister said hers was terrible. Kind of bracing myself lol. When does it usually start for most of u?
Heartburn usually starts around the end of the first trimester or in the second trimester as the baby grows. Don't worry, it's very common, just eat smaller meals and don't lie down immediately after eating.
I felt so miserable in my second trimester because of this burning throat feeling. It literally kept me awake at nights, but propping up pillows helped a lot.
I panicked so much thinking it was some chest infection when it first hit me in the 5th month! Later my doctor explained it's just normal pregnancy acidity, so don't worry at all.
Oh, heartburn can be so uncomfortable and actually make you feel super anxious at night. It is very common in the second and third trimesters, please talk to your doctor for safe antacids if it's too bad.
