Heartburn- How much Rennie is too much?

[alioops]

I found the Rennie did nothing. I used the Gaviscon tablets, which tasted better too because I got the lemon flavour so they didn't taste like toothpaste. Gaviscon is stronger but I was able to take less of them so I was halving my usage of heartburn remedy and they werent that much more expensive than Rennies.

Forget morning sickness, big belly, uncomfortable night sleeps - they were all ok, it was HEARTBURN that killed me. I had it bad too esp during pg #3. I never took anymore than 6 rennies a day- so your doing well LOL.
Have you tried other things - drinking milk, eating slowly etc etc (im sure youve heard them all b4)......?????

I had heartburn and morning sickness from about 6 weeks to the time I went into theatre (had chuck bowl with me) YUK!! to have my DD. I tried just about evrything under the sun. The only thing that helped was FRUIT TINGLES!!! and yep you can have as many as you want. Might be worth giving them a try!

when I was pregnant I went through huge packets a day. went to the doc and told her about it and she gave me a perscription. worked like a charm, took one each morning and didn't have any heartburn for the rest of the pregnancy. was more like acid reflux that I had, and I think thats what the perscription was for, it was called renetidine or something along those lines. no impact on bub at all

[alioops]

Ranitidine is the active ingredient in Zantac and Mylanta. I think it is in Gaviscon too. It also gets prescribed for bubs with reflux. You can get it over the counter or even at the supemarket. Have a close look at the labels when you do your grocery shopping and get one that has ranitidine

Hi ladies

Thanks
