Re: Heartburn is driving me CRAZY!!!!
I honestly don't think you can overdo it with the Tums. With my DD, I lived on them. It's starting again now, but only with certain foods. Sometimes, right after I eat, I pop 2 just to be safe.

Re: Heartburn is driving me CRAZY!!!!
I had heartburn REALLY bad a few weeks ago and the only thing that really helped it was vanilla milkshakes.
I've also read that papaya helps with heartburn as well. I've been making smoothies every night with papaya and I don't know if it's a coincidence ir not, but the heartburn is at a minimum 
Feel better! It's no fun!

Re: Heartburn is driving me CRAZY!!!!
Doctor told me to take Tums all day long if I had to! Which I do!
Heartburn has been my really awful complaint with this pregnancy. Doctor also told me to lie on my back for a few seconds. I usually have heartburn at work from snacking out of my drawer all day so I haven't tried that.
Good Luck! Feel Better!

Re: Heartburn is driving me CRAZY!!!!
Yep, its so gross...the burping and the burning feeling
I take TUMS too, and I hate how they all taste....I tell myself they're Necco Wafers while I chew them (which is weird cause I don't like Necco wafers either) 
I just hope all this is worth it

I had it terrible for my first and now during this one. I had an endoscopy after delivery and found out I had an ulcer! if you start coughing/vomiting blood it could be more serious so keep an eye on it

Re: Heartburn is driving me CRAZY!!!!
tums smoothies - they are GOOD FOR YOU - they have calcium - my doc told me the same thing - NO SUCH THING as too many.
if they don't work - call your doc and confirm that Zantac is okay for you. for me - the smoothies no longer work and i've moved onto Zantac....does the trick for me!

Try to get the smooth ones. They are definitely less chalky tasting.
