I had terrible reflux with my first and what used to help a bit was to drink warm water with a few spoonfuls of apple cider vinegar. It helped a bit. Totally sympathise with your situation but like everything else, it is finite and it will pass :-)
Hi ladies,
A few years ago I was told I had a hiatus hernia, which is basically a condition that causes a lot of reflux and general discomfort. It was treated at the time with losec and since that I only get it on and off but nothing too severe.
Since falling pregnant I had a few terrible bouts of it and it feels like the pregnancy has awakened the whole thing. I've had a terrible wend with it and am wondering if anyone has/ had this and do you have any advice that might help.
To let u know what I've been doing to relieve it, I have a natural yoghurt every day, take Rennie or gaviscon when it gets bad (though it really doesn't help) and am trying to eat smaller meals. Unfortunately I can't say any of these things r having any major impact.
I have spoken to my doc about and while she did give some of the above advice, she said its just part of pregnancy and hopefully it will get better as the pregnancy progresses.
Any help greatly appreciated. X
