Some women never have heartburn until they are pregnant. Then when it happens it can be somewhat surprising. The reason it happens during pregnancy is because as the uterus and baby grow they press up against the tummy and put some pressure on the digestive system. A sip of sparkling water can help, and so can soda crackers. To see other symptoms look to the left of this page and click on the button that says Pregnancy Symptoms. There is a whole list of them there. I bookmarked that page and I refer to it all the time LOL.
