they say the more heartburn you get the more hair the baby will have. not sure how true it is because i had zero heartburn and my girl came out with a full head of hair. but it's definitely true in some cases!

Also: the esophageal sphincter (the piece of muscle at the base of the esophagus) becomes much softer in pregnancy.. Which allows the fluid to pass through more often. It sucks for sure! 😣

It's just that your stomach is being pushed up, and the acid is making its way into your esophagus much easier. Shorter way to travel up. Totally normal. If it's making you throw up and not able to eat, then I'd speak to a doctor. ❤️
