"I have heartburn and I am 9 weeks pregnant, what should I do?"

If you are experiencing heartburn during pregnancy, there are over-the-counter options that are safe to use. Some options include medications like Graviscon or Pepcid, which can help relieve symptoms. It is also recommended to avoid heavy, acidic, or irritating foods, as well as large meals close to bedtime. Consulting with a pharmacist can help determine the best course of action for managing your symptoms.
