don’t want to alarm you, but you should ask your care provider if you could be suffering from gallstones. I only suffered nausea and heartburn ( none of the other gallstone signs ) and had to have my gallbladder removed one month after giving birth. Hope you are just experiencing “normal” heartburn

I’m thankful that this pregnancy is almost over and that the little one is healthy. I’m so thankful for my husband who worries about both of us and doesn’t complain when I keep him awake all night (and Tylenol PM which allows me some comfort and sleep at night). And that Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming and this year we’ll have a new little family member to share our traditions with!! For being done with graduate school this semester.

Thank you all for sharing! :)

@Elizabeth – Most days I’m doing all I can to avoid anything in my diet that will flare up the reflux. But yesterday was my birthday, too, and my husband gave me a pack of two Reese’s cups as part of my gift. They were delicious. Sadly, though I try to avoid such things, it doesn’t really help. These days I can get reflux from nothing more than a glass of water. Boo.

I love reading about things people are thankful for. I believe that once we start searching for the simple things in our lives that we are thankful for, we keep finding more. I recently started a blog sharing simple every day things I am thankful for. http://naturallyhappybeingme.blogspot.com/

We turned our air back on in Chicago too. Our bedroom was almost at 90 degrees the other night. Too hot for us to sleep in. I am glad you are being good to yourself. :)

I’m grateful for my God, my loving family and my health. It is all I need really.

I am thankful for a wonderful and beautiful day yesterday in celebration of my birthday. First, a walk (alone) in the woods. I spotted a hawk and three snakes:-)
Second, an outing with husband and three boys to my favorite place, the Peconic River Herb Farm. So exquisite.

And I’m sorry to be forthcoming but I have to suggest that raw almonds and papaya work very well to combat reflux. And sadly, the reflux may be caused by the reeses cups:-( Sugar causes reflux… don’t shoot the messenger! I know I just finished off the bag of animal crackers I had stashed in my bag just in case a child got hungry. You do what you can…
