I have problems with heartburn. Not every day, but frequently. It used to be a problem only when I was pregnant, but I've had problems since my youngest was born.

I haven't bothered with the Dr. I figure she'll tell me to stop smoking and stop drinking soda. I suppose when I feel miserable enough, I will.

"I have problems with heartburn. Not every day, but frequently. It used to be a problem only when I was pregnant, but I've had problems since my youngest was born."

I'm getting the opinion that a Hiatal Hernia is fairly easy to get and that's the main cause of the Reflux. Mine came most likely from Cigar smoking. I loved cigars, never could tolerate cigarettes much, and smoked 2-3 a day, more if I was driving much. But I always coughed deep and hard from them, The Dr. said that's all it would take. I'm sure Pregnancy is a lot more strain than that.
