Need Advice

Right now it is 4:06 AM and I am blogging. If you know me well enough you will know that I never usually see any time between 1 am and 8 am unless something is wrong. Just now I woke up extremely sick. I thought I understood what hard burn was, until now. This was off the charts. I started throwing up (sorry to be so graphic) and it feels like I have something sharp piercing my throat. A woman in our Child Birth Preparation class said she eats ice cream and it goes way. So, I just took two tums and am eating ice cream.

I am not a heartburn person and I don't know how to remedy it! Everything online is medication suggestions, which I can't take. Does anyone else have any suggestions?I will try anything next time this happens.

Ooh. yuck. That's why I always lost weight towards the end of my pregnancy, because i just refused to eat so as not to get heartburn.

Kel, I am the same way and its swful! Plus all the hormones and drugs make it worse. I do the meds though and they pretty much eliminate it for me. I have to go all the way to Prevacid for it to take it away. Tums, zantac, sleeping sitting up...none of that worked for me.

Oh Kelly, I'm so sad for you. Lisa really struggles. Go to your Dr. for Prevacid, I don't think it hurts the baby. Can you send me an invite to your blog again. I changed my blogmail account. Send it to carolinerober@ymail.com

Unfortunatly-I dont; think that there is much you can do. :( Try to avoid foods that will cause you problems...and maybe sleep slightly elevated... Oh! You look so darn cute in your pic!! :)
