Heart Burn During Pregnancy

Even if water burns:

The mantra –

Rule of half – half chapati, half sandwich, half banana.
Solids and liquids at 30 minutes interval.
Sitting in vajra asana after meals.
Eating something every 2 hours for example two spoon ice cream, a biscuit, half fruit.
No acidic foods like tea, coffee, juice or spicy snack.
Midnight snacking is must such as ice cream again, mango, fruit cream, some mithai, peanut butter.
Don’t brush. First eat, wait for 15 minutes, and then brush.
No drink on getting up from bed in the morning (no coconut water, lemon honey nothing) Munch on something dry like wafers, toast, etc.
Antacids are safe, pudin hara, ENO or Digene but not along with iron. Iron absorption is blocked with antacid.
Ranitidine, pantoprazole, omeprazole is offered when acidity is severe, can be taken safely.
Rule out gall bladder stones (upper abdominal ultrasound).
Rule out hiatus hernia (gastroenterologist).
Vitamin B 12 supplements to relieve gastric ulcer.
Avoid stress, sleep well.
Use laxative for easy and regular pooping.
Lemon in warm water, green tea and probiotic (curd) helps.
Sleep with head held high on pillows.
Avoid smoking and alcohol.

Sit upright; you are about to launch a baby!
