My throat has felt like it’s on fire the last three days, especially at night. Is this just a normal reflux symptom?
Drinking milk helps some, but it keeps coming back!
I haven’t thrown up or anything. It’s getting to where I don’t want to drink water anymore because I feel like only milk will make a difference. 😅

So I’m about 6 weeks and I’ve felt like I’ve had a sore throat the last couple of days. Don’t know if it’s the same thing. Also my body hurts all over 😞
Oof six weeks was rough for me. I’m 16 weeks and feel a lot better overall than I did then! There’s hope!
Yeah it kinda feels like a sore throat, but not like I’m sick or anything? It’s just burning.
Thanks ha ha.
Hard to say. I was wondering if I actually was getting a cold! But no other real cold symptoms other than the body pain lol. So maybe it is a little different from what you’re describing.
Hard to say, yeah. I know congestion is a pregnancy symptom. Found that out when I was pregnant during the Omicron wave. 😅 But idk about sore throat. Maybe??
Wouldn’t stress about it without other symptoms though. Just stay hydrated. 🤷♀️
Body pain is definitely baby though lol. The severity comes and goes, but that certainly seems to be a consistent symptom. 😅 A pillow between your legs (sleeping on your side) can help with back pain, at least!
Ok, thanks 😉
You might have developed heart burn. I was pretty disappointed when I thought oh maybe it’s acid reflux I’ve had it my whole life. But then it lasted for days finally I asked my husband if there was something wrong with me (I’m 21 I’ve never dealt with it) so he finally explained “yup that’s heart burn”. Tums are my best friend now.
Sounds like reflux to me! Milk can temporarily help, but you might want to think about taking some meds. They are totally harmless to bubs but will help you a lot. Or try propping yourself up with pillows in bed, helps stop the acid reaching your throat. I come from a family of reflux suffers so I'm on the strong stuff 😆
