My New BFF!

If I haven't mentioned it, this pregnancy is KICKING MY A**. One of the worst things about it is the constant acid reflux I have been suffering from. OMG- it's bad. Anytime you see me, I will usually be carrying around a bottle of Tums. I have bottles of Tums stashed everywhere, the car, my purse, my bedside table. I have also been taking Zantac twice a day. No relief what-so-ever. The other day, the doc said to try Prilosec. Ohhhh, I could kiss that man. This is a game changer! The RELIEF!!! I can actually lay down to sleep. I haven't eaten a Tums in 2 days. (insert choir of angels...hallelujah!!!...here) As a result, I hate to do it, but sorry Tums and Zantac, I'm breaking up with you. Prilosec is my new BFF!

  2. I know how you feel. My daughter is 18 years old now, but I remember that I had to sleep sitting up because of acid reflux. Glad you found relief!

  3. I used to carry liquid Maalox and drink straight from the bottle when I was pregnant! Oh, what fun! lol I'm glad you have discovered the Prilosec and it is giving you relief!

  4. Doesn't this mean the baby will be born with a lot of hair on its head or something??? Glad you found something to help, and just in time for a Thanksgiving feast.
