Hi Nisha, acidity is most common during pregnancy. Hope you are taking antacids after consulting your gynecologist as some contains like magnesium which is present in antacid tablets are not suitable for third trimester.
Here are some of the home remedies you can try to control the acidity.
• Avoid late eating. Having food just before bed time increase acid reflux.
• Golden rule no oily, spicy or street food.
• Have some fennel seeds and tulsi leaves soaked in water boil it cools down. Have this drink sip by sip periodically.
• Amala (Indian gooseberry) works wonder in acidity problem. Put dried amala pieces in mouth and chew it slowly. It will improve digestion and put away nausea.
Good luck!!
