Heartburn,
Indigestion and Digestive Complaints in the Third Trimester of
Pregnancy
Heartburn
is probably the most common discomfort of the third trimester!
As
the baby grows, your expanding uterus places pressure on your
digestive tract and may cause the contents to be forced back upwards,
leading to heartburn and indigestion. This is caused by
the acidic contents of the stomach rising up into the esophagus
and causing a burning sensation in the upper chest.
Other digestive problems that occur commonly in the third trimester
are constipation and hemorrhoids which are both unpleasant and
often painful. These are often as a result of hormonal factors
linked to pregnancy, weightgain and, of course, the increased
pressure of the baby in the abdomen.
How
is heartburn usually treated?
There
are many methods of reducing heartburn and digestive discomfort
during pregnancy and different approaches will help different
women. Some of the best, time-tested methods are listed
at the bottom of this page.
Of
course, due to the possibility of side-effects and the risk of
affecting your baby’s normal development, medications are always
best avoided during pregnancy. There are several medications commonly
used for heartburn and indigestion which are available either
over the counter or by prescription but none of these should be
used during pregnancy without consulting your doctor first - even
OTC antacids. Although the medications in general use are
those found to have a low risk of affecting the fetus, no drugs
are without risk during pregnancy.
What
is BabyNature's Digesto-K?
Digesto-K
is a 100% natural remedy containing herbal, homeopathic and tissue
salt ingredients for addressing the troublesome symptoms of heartburn,
indigestion and other digestive symptoms all so common in the
third trimester. This remedy is completely safe to use during
pregnancy and is a very effective alternative to the OTC and prescription
antacids and other medications used for these complaints. Manufactured
in convenient lactose granules, Digesto-K is simply sprinkled
onto the tongue where it is absorbed by the mucous membranes of
the mouth.
How do I use Digesto-K?
Sprinkle
a small pinch of Digesto-K onto the tongue when needed. Granules
may also be dissolved in filtered water if desired. May
be repeated after 20 minutes for up to 10 doses if necessary.
Digesto-K contains the following proven ingredients:
Mag. Phos. is a
biochemic tissue salt that helps to quickly ease
digestive discomfort including heartburn, acid reflux, cramps, flatulence and hiccups.
It also helps to improve general functioning of the intestines,
preventing constipation.
Nat. Sulph. is also a tissue salt and is known as the 'cell cleanser'.
This tissue salt regulates body fluids and helps to promote healthy
functioning of the liver, pancreas, urinary tract system and digestive
system. It will prevent nausea as well as the bitter taste
in the mouth often associated with acid reflux and regurgitation.
Melissa officinalis is
also called lemon balm and is well-known for its soothing and
calming properties as well as being widely prescribed by herbalists
for the relief of all complaints related to anxiety and stress.
This herbal ingredient is excellent at relaxing cramps, improving
digestion and treating gastrointestinal complaints.
Mentha Piperita
is a herb from the mint family and has been used for many hundreds
of years for natural relief from indigestion, nausea and heartburn. It relaxes
the muscles of the digestive tract and stimulates the flow of
natural digestive juices and bile, thereby assisting healthy digestion.
Phosphorus (6C)
is a homeopathic remedy for digestive disorders including constipation
and diarrhea.
How has Digesto-K helped others?
'During
the third trimester of my pregnancy I began to feel generally
uncomfortable and exhausted from lugging around so much extra
weight. I also began to suffer from the most awful heartburn
which I had never before experienced in my life. It was
so severe that it would keep me awake at night for hours!!!
I decided to give your Digesto-k a chance as I was so desperate
for relief but I did not want to risk my baby’s health by taking
medication. After taking the very first dose I was amazed -
my heartburn was soothed almost immediately! This product helped
me get through the last few months of pregnancy in comfort which
I know would not otherwise have happened.' Beth, UK
'Having
always suffered from GERD as well as IBS, pregnancy became a nightmare
for my digestive system as all my previous symptoms worsened and
I could no longer take OTC or prescription drugs. My sister
suggested your Digest OK remedy which she used while pregnant
last year and I will be forever grateful that she did. The
remedy has been a lifesaver - thank you!' Jeanne D., CO
