Q: Indigestion and heartburn has been the burden of my pregnancy, can it be avoided through eating certain foods?
A: Luckily your suffering is only temporary as the uterus pushes on the digestive tract and will cease after the birth of your baby. Eat small meals avoiding spicy or acidic foods and raw salad vegetables which are harder to digest. Avoid drinking coffee and fizzy drinks. After meals try sipping mint tea by adding fresh mint to boiled water.
