Bad Heartburn While Pregnant

What can I do for heartburn?

My doctor gave me a list of medications I can take during pregnancy and Heartburn and Zantac TUMS he said. Is there anything my doctor can prescribe me because it is not working! And its very bad night when I lay on my right side, but just disappears when I lay on my left side. Is anyone else having heartburn really bad and their doctor gave them something to it stronger? Thank you! Lol yeah thats what I heard my first if they have a lot of hair, then you have bad heartburn. With it my ultrasound tech was like "wow your baby has great hair, "as he shocked!

My doctor with my first pregnancy required a higher dose of Zantac that what is offered on the counter and when it does not work, I went on Nexium. This time around the high dose of Zantac (Ranitidine) works. I think the strongest you can get OTC is 150 mg once a day … I am on 300 mg or you can get it prescribed 150 mg 2x a day. Also watch your intake of salt As always makes mine worse. Eating late at night … fatty or spicy foods. If I think something else that I do help I'll add =) I'm exhausted tonight and can not think, lol. Good Luck!
