Pregnant Heartburn Remedy

Q.I no it is probably like one of them old wives tales but i am suffering really badly from heartburn i am 19weeks pregnant, an i have been told that it means my bubsy will have loads of hair when he/she is born?? i have been asking friends etc if they had it an the friends that did have heartburn there bubys had loads a hair and the ones who didn't were like bald?? no mean answers please i no it is all funny so can anyone poin out a remedy for this case please?

A.I've heard that too, and since I'm almost 22 weeks with heartburn every single day, I was starting to wonder. But, it is just another old wives tale. Yes, your baby could have lots of hair, or your baby could be bald. It isn't a reliable way to determine if the baby will have lots of hair or not. It's just one of those fun pregnancy symptoms. Try not laying down for a while after eating. Try and sit up or stand up for a few hours after you eat. Also, avoid spicy and greasy foods, which I'm sure you know. Other than that, TUMS are my best friends I suffered from heartburn big time when expecting my first child and he was born with practically no hair - so I guess it's an old wives tale or we're muddling ourselves up with cats! .
