I Loved Heartburn While I Was Pregnant... NOT!!

This face looks innocent...

I used to suffer from really bad heartburn, and it got 10x worse during pregnancy, as a lot of you have probably also experienced.

Here’s a tip my voice instructor at Berklee told me:

Lie on your left side at night! Because of the shape and placement of your stomach, if you lie on your right side the stomach acid can’t drain as efficiently as it should, and this causes heartburn to worsen. If you lie on your left side, it drains more easily!

Also, DATES! Dates are alkaline so they help balance the acidity in your stomach.

I swear this worked for me, and I still use these tips at night if I have heartburn.

Let me know if it works for you too!
