Correlation does not equal causation. There aren't any studies that show a genuine, medical reasonig between babies with lots of hair or not causing heart burn during pregnancy. Yes, there is a correlation, but nothing has proven that one leads to the other.

http://www.livestrong.com/article/504129-pregnancy-indigestion-the-babys-hair/ references the study that I read, was unable to find it by just google, that shows the correlation. Most studies don't include 100% of women so some do have heartburn and have babies without hair, however for me it has even completely!

I had massive heart burn (i had to get a prescription cause over the counter stuff did not work) with all of my kids and not a single one came out with allot of hair (barely any). Complete wives tale.

That's not true because, I'm 37.2 weeks and I haven't had any heartburn and my baby shows a head full of hair in his last ultrasound.

It's 100% true studies have shown that there is a direct correlation between heartburn and babies being born with hair. Google it! There a plenty of studies and research on it.
