heartburn

Hi im 27 weeks pregnant and ive just started to get heartburn which is causing me alot of problems. Everytime i drink or eat its repeating on me. If i lie down on my back or right side i feel my food coming up and have to run to the bathroom to be sick. Is this normal? Do you know what medicine i can take while pregnant to stop me from getting heartburn. Thanks

I currently take Zantac and its perfectly safe.  U could get it over the counter but if u get it by prescription then u can get the stronger dose of 150 mg twice a day.  It has been my god send as I was suffering with everything even drinking just water.  I'm currenty 15 wks and have been taking it from the beginning.  Good Luck my dear :)

You can take tums or mylanta (preferably sodium free). Hope this helps.
