    Here are few items that have provided a little relief for me during my uncomfortable pregnancies! (Links here ➡️ HortonLane.com/Shop under “Pregnancy & Nausea Comfort Remedies)
    What are some things that help you through pregnancy? I have yet to find a pregnancy pillow I love. Maybe it’s cause I switch sides so much when I sleep. But I would love to hear your recs!!

    The thing that helped me most with my pregnancy was a solid water bottle with a straw and a CONSTANT supply of ice water! My cheap lil insulated water bottle from Walmart did the trick and I still take it everywhere with me. I probably drank 120-150oz of fluids a day while pregnant. Also, I suggest keeping a pregnancy journal. Each week gets its own couple of pages and I kept track of symptoms, upcoming appointments, questions to ask at my next appt, and contact info for my doctor, hospital, doula, and important family members. Hope this helps someone out there!

    I LOVED Scentbalms when pregnant because they help you stop smelling everything around you that makes you feel so sick. They're like chapstick where you can dot a bit under your nose and you can smell lemon or lavender instead of that old dumpster down the street, definitely a 10/10, less nausea please.

    For heartburn I recommend Esomeprazole w magnesium. It’s the main drug in Nexium, and I just used the generic brand. Technically different from Prilosec(omeprazole) but I’ve never tried that so idk if the effect is similar. Im sure if you tell your OB they can get you a prescription so your insurance can pay for it, bc it can get kinda expensive since it only works for about 24 hrs you have to take it daily. I never bothered bc I only had to take it for a couple months. My nausea was so mild but I could take a handful of tums and the heartburn would persist 😂 no not literally a handful but where as one tum would normally do me the trick once in a blue moon, during pregnancy I would take like 3 Tums in a couple hrs and my heartburn wouldn’t go away :/ and it was with anything I ate. The esomeprazole helped 100%.

    ATTN MOMS-TO-BE: Get a belly band that fits you properly, and wear it often. Just do it. I didn't wanna shell out $40 for one, even though my body was begging me to do so, and although I'm not positive that's what caused my extreme excess skin, I'm sure it didn't help. So just get the belly band.
