i get nasty heartburn sometimes just before i go to sleep or wake up in the morning i find at noghttime a glass of hot milk helps a whole lot and also helps me sleep better aswell and a glass of cold milk in the morning is great for heartburn and sometimes settles my stomache when i feel sick so i can doze of again for a little while

I got terrible heartburn during pregnancy and found that nothing worked, for a while having a glass of milk helped but towards the end my bump was so big that even milk gave me indigestion, so instead I tried Rennie Soft Chews which helped a treat, they dont have a bad taste and I dont know if it was a placebo or not but they certainly worked for me.
