Description

If you're pregnant and struggling with that burning sensation in your chest after meals — you're not alone. In this episode of The Vibrantly You® Podcast, we're breaking down everything you need to know about heartburn during pregnancy — from what causes it to natural, practical ways to reduce it.

We’ll explain how pregnancy hormones and your growing belly contribute to heartburn, common food and lifestyle triggers, and the gentle nutrition and habit shifts that can actually help.

Whether you’re in your first trimester or nearing your due date, this conversation is packed with supportive insights and digestive wellness tips for pregnant moms who want to stay nourished, comfortable, and confident during this season.

You’ll learn:

  • Why heartburn happens in pregnancy (hello, progesterone)
  • The top foods that trigger reflux in pregnant women
  • Gentle pregnancy-safe strategies to reduce symptoms
  • How to stay nourished without unnecessary restriction
  • When to talk to your provider about medication options

Grab your favorite calming snack and join us as we share real-life experiences (including Caitlin’s midnight heartburn cruise story) and give you realistic ways to feel better — without overhauling your whole diet.
