Hormones released during pregnancy allow the softening of the sphincter between the esophagus and stomach. This lets stomach acids back up into the esophagus, causing a burning sensation. This may also occur in the latter months of pregnancy as your baby pushes all of your organs upward.
Suggestions:
- Eat smaller, more frequent meals
- Remain upright for an hour after eating, lying down can irritate the problem
- Eating yogurt or drinking milk can help
- Avoid spicy or greasy foods
- Try a tablespoon of honey in a glass of warm milk
- Mercurius Solubilis 6C three times daily
