So thirsty..
So I thought I was lucky and was getting a "good' pregnancy with no sick days.. but no.
I am coming into week 22 and for the last 2 weeks I have had the worst heartburn ever, it was burning so bad that I felt my head was going to boil off.
I found out that tomatoes can cause this so I stopped eating them a few days ago as I had been eating them non stop because I had an endless supply of them.
But now, everytime I take a drink of water, it does not stay down! Its horrible! The burning heartburn is not burning as much. But I keep throwing up! I cant stop!! It has only happened just after I drink water, Ive tried making it warmer and sipping it, but it does not help.
Im so thirsty, I love my water, but I just cant keep it down, Im scared I will dehyadrate and get sick :(
Does anybody know if I can fix this?
TIA

Gawd I wish I knew! Have you tried drinking it through a straw?
-
Does it make a difference if it's sparkling water? I don't know how adding more gas could help but maybe worth a try???
-
Yup, even tried drinking through a straw. I think water=bad
Sparkling water might help.. I might try that one, I can drink juice and strong cordial.. I dont understand why water wont stay down as I need it the most.

Do you like milk? I found that drinking milk eased my heartburn. I had it very badly too, I was vomiting with it so I know how bloody awful it it! I also started taking tissue salts for acid neutralising and they helped hugely. You can get them in a health food store or online.
I heard that almonds help too, but I don't remember much about that so you would have to ask someone else.

I also heard Fruit Tingles are good for heartburn!?
