Acid reflux causing vomiting

Need Advice

I’m 10 weeks and for the past couple weeks, my acid reflux has been getting worse. I’ve never had any type of gerd or acid reflux before being pregnant, so it’s thrown me for a loop. I know there’s been a lot of posts on this but most of the comments are from those in their third trimester. I’ve been throwing up right after meals NOT due to any nausea but from the reflux and the food coming right back up after. Ive been taking Pepcid and it hasn’t helped that much (tums is useless to me).

I want to start omeprazole but not sure of when the best time of the day to take it/what’s worked for you? Any others who started it first trimester - did you take it every day until delivery, or did symptoms get better and you stopped in 2nd or 3rd trimester? I know technically it’s safe but I just worry a bit about taking a daily medication so early on in the pregnancy. Also any foods or drinks or tips you’ve found to help calm the symptoms/prevent vomiting?? 😭 TIA!!
