I'm currently 23w3d and so far I haven't had any issue with acid reflux or heartburn, but I feel like it's inevitable and will be creeping up on me pretty soon. When (if at all) did acid relux/heartburn start for you during your pregnancy?
-
I'm interested in this too as I've had heartburn from time to time before I was pregnant so a bit worried about how much worse it might get later on
-
I rarely had it before I was pregnant and now at 24w 5d I feel like I'm popping TUMS like candy.
-
It started for me at 33 weeks (only lasted 2ish weeks) for this pregnancy and after 37 weeks for my first. Maybe you won't get any!
-
I want to say heartburn started around 22 weeks. We were on vacation and I had to stop and buy Tums. I ended up going through five big bottles by the time LO arrived. Oh it was miserable. Fingers crossed you don't get it.
-
I had terrible heartburn & acid reflux before pregnancy, so I was expecting it to be horrible the entire time. Luckily (and strangely) I had basically zero heartburn until I think 25-26 weeks? Now, at 28 weeks, I have it almost daily, and it sucks! I usually get up in the middle of the night to take a sip or two of milk (my weird heartburn cure :p).
-
Started around 32 weeks for me. I'm 33 and change now and I have to take Tums in the middle of the night when woken up by reflux.
I had never had it before in my life and loved spicy foods. Now I can barely handle the acidity of tomato sauce!
-
Hmmm I think it was around 32 weeks and it got pretty bad the last couple of weeks starting at around 36 weeks.
-
I'm so glad you asked this!! I'm 26 weeks and I haven't had it yet... I'm hoping that the pregnancy gods will spare me this one because they gave me stretch marks at the end of the first trimester!!
-
Sometime in the 30s, don't remember exactly. But it bad every afternoon and night towards the end.
-
I'm not sure I ever had it before pregnancy, but it popped up a couple times at 20 to 21 weeks. Now I'm 23 weeks and haven't had it regularly (yet...)
-
I didn't have heartburn pre-pregnancy so I'm hoping not to get it also. However, looks like 30+ weeks looks to be a common theme here. Yikes! I'm currently 24+3. Not looking forward to it.
-
3rd trimester...really bad in the last few weeks
-
I was just wondering this today! Thanks for asking - I've had bad heartburn pre-pregnancy, so I feel like I'm a ticking time bomb.
-
@Cherrybee: Haha you totally deserve to not get acid reflux for that!
@mrsjyw: I had a ton of hair when I was born just like your little guy. If this baby has that much and what they say is true, I am going to have it really bad, too!
-
@lawbee11: OMG! you ladies are so lucky! i've had horrible reflux/heartburn/indegestion since the first trimester!!!!!!!! it's awful. i could eat a piece of plain white bread and within 5 minutes have heartburn
i keep saying she better come out with the fullest/longest hair EVER! haha
-
3rd tri on the dot.
-
Around beginning of third tri. Midwife approved zantac and it works like a charm! I also sleep propped up which really helps.
-
I never really did! I also kept waiting and wondering, and then fearing a bald little girl, but I got heartburn about twice during pregnancy, and my little girl came out with a full head of hair! There is hope
-
Mid 2nd trimester... I can't remember the exact week though
-
Never got it.
ETA: I also never had heartburn/reflux pre-pregnancy. Not sure if there's a connection.
-
@sarbear: yup, me too. half way through the 1st trimester, it started, and basically didn't go away (at ALL. like, it wasn't just at night or anything) until i gave birth. i'd never had heartburn before in my life.
everything made it worse. sometimes even eating TUMS made it worse!!
luckily LO was born with a full head of hair so at least i can pretend the heartburn was good for something
-
Ive had reflux since before I even knew I was pregnant and I never had it prior to being pregnant. It has gotten worse since about 28 weeks though.
-
I've had reflux on and off, throughout my pregnancy. However, it's been horrific for the past three weeks (3rd tri).
-
Umm 8 weeks?! Hoping it lets up soon and I'm heartburn free at least for the second trimester. I never had it pre-pregnancy.
I had never had it before in my life and loved spicy foods. Now I can barely handle the acidity of tomato sauce!
