Because you don't have as much room for your stomach contents as the baby gets bigger and everything gets pushed up and up.

The only time I ever had heartburn was when I was pregnant. Had Brock and WHAMO! :Problem solved! But I had it BAD. I'd wake up with a mouth full of stomach acid and spend the next 1/2 hour doing everything to try to get that horrid taste out of my mouth.

Wonder why pregnancy brings that on. Anyone?

Which leads me to a question... I was watching a 2am infomercial about some herbal guy selling a book and one of the things he talked about was heartburn. He said heartburn is caused not by too much stomach acid but by NOT ENOUGH! Said instead of taking things to suppress stomach acid, try taking a couple tablespoons of vinegar instead. Medical doctors prescribing drugs for acid reflux and heart burn KNOW they're getting you hooked for life because it keeps your stomach from making acid so as soon as you get off the drugs your old problem comes back.

Anyone know how true that is?

CandaceIf I still got heartburn, I would certainly give it a try....why not?I had heartburn for about 10 years but after changing my diet, eliminating grains, sugar and refined foods and eating lots of Raw stuff, I have not had heartburn for over two years. Reducing stress also helps.AnneVA USA

I have galstones, RA and had GERDS really bad, and still, I guess,

have it; but here is how I have it under control and the acompaning

problems of galstones: First got the GERDS a bit under control by

cutting out red meats, sugars, milk, white flours, and got better,

but found that if I even had even chicken or chicken broth would have

a bad night.Usually had to sit up to sleep. I started taking

acidolphus between meals, DGL abt 20 minutes before a meal and

vegtable enzymes after the meal. I did this for a year or so, but

would still had problems if especially eating stuff like chili,

tacos, Icecream, fatty stuff or white flour of any kind. SOOO...

Now, for the past month or so no more meats, no more fat of any kind

other than a bit of olive oil and UDO oil and if i take some extra

lactobacilus (sp)I can even have a glob of lowfat sour cream or

quacamoli. I have not had an eruption of acid for the whole month.

Once in a while during the day, i take a few drops of TT and everyday

a raw egg with organic non-engineered soy milk with 2 TBS of Total

Nutrition whipped in blender.

True, I get crazy ideas of having a big juicy burger or a half gallon

of icecream, or a double rich banana cake or what ever, but i really

go light on such, remembering the pain that will come my way if I

succumb!

I have to go back to surgeon ont hte 12th of Jan to let him know if I

want the galstones taken out, but I think I will hang in there for

awhile more. Have had a few pass in past years, but just may never

have another before I die and if worst comes to worst..there is

always emergency surgery : ). I am just so thankful that my stomach

is behaving as well as it is!

I hope this will help someone..it has really helped me.--

Hey Suzi! yeah..lots better! been lurking when I get time, but been

pretty busy and run out of time. Been enjoying the posts and your

very god contributions. I really haven't had much of interest to

contribute and Momma always said 'if you can't find something nice to

say..keep your mouth shut!' so I figure not typing out something is

like keeping my mouth shut <G>

love, lee

Hi Granny,

Sure been a long time since we heard from you. I am glad to hear that

you are doing quite well. As for the gallstones, are you drinking lots

of water? Adding any fresh squeezed lemon into it? Lemon will help to

dissolve those pesky gallstones. Also the liver bomb will help to

eliminate them too, if you feel up to doing it. Might save you some surgery.

Anyhow, it sounds like your diet has improved quite a lot. Good for you.

Peace be with you Lee.
