It's been years since I've been pregnant, but I remember how painful and frustrating heartburn was during each pregnancy. VIVIDLY. You never really are the same person when you've had heartburn so bad you vomited. I tried everything and nothing worked to PREVENT heartburn, but a few things worked well to alleviate it. Here is my most popular tiktok video with over 20K views on the topic.
Why I switched from TUMS to Alkalime for my pregnancy heartburn.
- Nothing worked to prevent my heartburn, even when I ate the blandest food, a lot of legumes, only sipped water between meals. I needed to intervene with heartburn.
- I wasn’t comfortable with Tums because I needed more than 5 in a day (the safety amount) to cope with my heartburn.
- Alkalime is convenient and effective. Available in packets, I could keep in my purse for when I had heartburn on the go. I didn’t need to use it as often as tums because it gave relief for longer periods of time.
- Another convenience is that I could set it as a monthly order, and I never had to go out and buy it. Plus every time I ordered I earned 25% back in points for free product on Loyalty Rewards.
Formulated with 11 biochemical mineral salts, organic lemon powder, and zesty lemon and lime essential oils, Alkalime supplement provides a fizzy fix to my least favorite pregnancy discomfort.
What worked for you?
You're probably so excited about welcoming your baby into your home, if you're like most moms you're probably flipping through a few books, you've download some apps, and listening to your friend's and family's experience. You're probably doing your part to be a star patient for your doctor or midwife.I totally get that, and this is actually a problem because you're going to get you varied, sometimes conflicting advice that might not even work for your circumstance, and here is the kicker: lots of time's it not evidence-based guidance.
Instead of that, I want to offer you that working with a doula from your first trimester through your postpartum time is actually going to give you what you really need: cohesive information, expert guidance and the emotional support that every new mom deserves. It's like having an a doula in your pocket (or purse if that's where you keep your phone)
Hiring a Digital Doula is the best way to have a positive experience during your pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I would love to be your digital doula.
