I'm Currently Feeling:  | Heartburn cures please?
Does anyone know what I can take for heartburn, have been getting it severely lately, and can't stand it. Is anything safe for me to take? xx  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | well the tums have a warning on the back but according to the pharmacist its a standard warning for pregnant woman. i dont want to give out medical advice so u could ask your doc first to make sure but i think its safe from the advice i got |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Go to the gp hun. You can get anything on free prescription now. I can't stomach Gaviscon when I'm pg, and they gave me something else (sorry, can't remember the name!  ), but it was tablet form, and tasted like butterscotch!!! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My doctor said Tums are definately ok! You can't use Pepto (which I don't know if you all even have there) but the Tums are fine! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Gaviscon, safe to use whilst pregnant.. always check the writing on the back though, just to be sure! worked great for me, instant relief. |
