ACID/Gastrytis/16weeks pregnant

Ay nako, 16 weeks and two ER trips na? That's rough, mama, sending you strength! From what I hear, Gaviscon seems to be the go-to for a lot of pregnant mums kasi it's safe and actually works fast, plus Pepcid is another one na recommended ng doctors. But honestly, the lifestyle stuff might help just as much, smaller meals throughout the day instead of big ones, skip the spicy and greasy food (I know, sarap naman ), limit coffee, and sleep with your head elevated kasi gravity helps. My friend swore by slippery elm too; apparently it coats your stomach and esophagus and makes a real difference, though she said it took a few days to kick in. Since you've been to the ER twice na, definitely bring this up with your OB and ask which antacid they prefer for your specific situation, walang basta-basta medicine pag may alak (baby) pa, pero marami namang safe options so you shouldn't have to suffer through this! Fingers crossed you get relief soon.
