You need a base chemical to neutralize the stomach acid so try milk, any kind should be find, fruits like apples and grapes, and products with a vinegar base are some examples of products. I don’t know what all you can eat while pregnant but you should probably go see a dr. If it persists

Linda asks…
pregnant with heartburn and natural remedies?
hi im 11 weeks pregnant and am finding it hard to eat and sleep because of heartburn. is there anything natural i can have?

remedy answers:
Hi Tari,
I had the same problem recently so I did a little research: heartburn is caused by several different factors such as certain foods, smoking or stress. To manage it you could try some of the following:
-frequent smaller meals instead of 3 large ones
-eat slowly
-eat at least 3 hours before bedtime as your last meal
-extra pillow at night to keep head elevated
-drink luke-warm water or herbal tea after dinner
-wear looser-fitting clothes
-avoid ‘trigger’ foods such as: chocolate (I know!), sugars, onion, citrus fruits / juices, peppermint, coffee, alcohol, fried and fatty foods, mustard, vinegar, tomatoes, spicy foods, processed meats
Hope this helps and good luck with your pregnancy!

This came from a home remedy book and works brilliantly.
Mix together:
