It's Back.

The reflux is back. Just as I got over the pregnancy nausea, the allergies (well, almost), and finished a huge paper for school, the reflux kicked in. It happened overnight.  I seriously thought I would escape it this time.  I was sadly mistaken.

Oh, and I've tried everything.  Holistic medication, over-the-counter drugs, special diet, etc.  The only thing that helped was a Rx from my ENT.  The acid reflux was so bad with Olivia, my teeth suffered some minor damage. 

My number one acid reflux trigger: WATER.  If anyone knows why that is, I'd love the answer.

I can probably put off Rx meds another couple of weeks.  Maybe a month.  But, the first time I wake up at 3:00am with acid spraying out my nose, will be the last time.  I should probably schedule an appointment now and have the medication standing by.

Just when I had started to feel better, this horribly painful and uncomfortable pregnancy discomfort set in.  I am, however, still determined to embrace and enjoy this trimester of pregnancy!
