I have BAD acid reflux now, not being pregnant I do take medication. I’m wondering once My hubby and I do get pregnant, will there be anything I can take?
That’s a huge worry of mine, i’m fine with knowing Ill have lots of sleepless nights! But the acid reflux during pregnancy scares me! When I don’t take my meds, i get a chocking/gaging feeling. Its horrible! Then I get close, or vomit.
If you know an answer, please let me know. I will ask my doctor too when I get pregnant but wondering now.

Thank you!

I would like this blog to be of dual purpose… I am here to entice you to join me with a network marketing company that I am representing, a very noteworthy company because of its straight forward approach to earning money. There are no gimmicks, no mirrors, no fees, no investment and no risk. I’ve already stated this in my last blog. Now I would like to tell you more before I lead you to my web page. The other thing on my mind is healthy heart awareness. In a way, a completely different category, but the two are linked because of certain health products that this company manufactures here in the US.

Acid reflux is medically referred to as Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). As the name indicates, this is characterized by the reflux of stomach acids into the esophagus. It is a very common problem and many of us would have surely faced the symptoms of acid reflux. Symptoms of acid reflux disease are heartburn, chest pain, regurgitation of food into the mouth etc. Often the burning sensation or the heartburn gets so worse, that it seems to be a heart attack. Occasional symptoms appear because of eating of spicy foods or indigestion. But if these occur 2-3 times a week, then it surely indicates that there is something wrong with the digestive system.
