Ok, so not really YAY. The last two nights I have just been a tiny more uncomfortable than normal when I go to bed. I just feel kind of yucky no matter what side or angle I try to get comfortable in. This has ended up with me moving to a spare room and trying to sleep basically sitting up. Not only am I not getting much sleep, but when I finally do get to sleep I wake up with my new symptom - heartburn. At least I think it is heartburn. I have never really had heartburn .... ever. I just feel a little yucky in my throat that seems to be coming from my stomach. I don't feel the total burning sensation in my chest like heartburn, but I am pretty sure this is it. I took a tums this morning and it helped a little. I haven't eaten anything different that would cause this so I am attributing it to the 1 mm of space I have left in my stomach area to digest food. I've read this might happen in the third trimester, but I was hoping since I never really get heartburn I'd escape. Hopefully it will be just a few days or something - I'll try to remain optimistic.
At least my little buddy Mocha came and snuggled with me upstairs.... Kona stayed downstairs with Kevin... maybe they talked and did rock, bone, or treat to see who had to come upstairs... ;)

I'm so sorry you have heartburn!!! That is exactly what it is...that burning in your throat and it feels like stomach acid coming up. It's HORRIBLE!! I had it ALL day long and I would even get it after eating a bowl of cereal. It helps to eat more protein (peanut butter on a spoon works wonders!) and it's safe to take Zantac. I took 1/2 a pill every day and it helped me a little...but it would probably clear it right up for you :) This is the home stretch!! You are almost there and you will be back to your normal self quicker than you can imagine!
Bummer! I had it with Ava really bad! A banana would send me over the edge for a whole day...maybe all the sugars/carbs
I would eat just an apple and some cheese and be full...try to eat smaller, more frequent meals and higher protein. No spicy foods. Good luck!
One good thing, the minute he is in the outside world, your stomach will feel amazing all of a sudden. I was finally able to eat a regular full size meal just a short while later :)
Love the stylish belt, by the way ;)
