HOW MANY TUMS DO YOU TAKE A DAY.
and does anyone else kno any better getting rid of heartburn options?? 

The liquid antacids work better than Tums for me. Mylanta all the way (generic version lol)

I use Pepcid Complete. My doctor says it's safe during pregnancy

Knock on wood i havent had to take any in over a mth

I only take two a day and they also help with my MS

i eat a ton. Probablly close to 10 a dqay. I also have 2 different prescriptions for heartburn.

Im prettu sure i have it worse than most.  
Drives me nuts and there is never any relief. EVER.

Try something like prilosec or zantac. Ask your dr. if you are unsure what would be better for you to take.
I have had severe reflux even before I was pregnant, and I take 2x prilosec a day.

It could be a solution if it's a big problem.
