Eating small, frequent meals can help reduce heartburn during pregnancy by preventing the stomach from becoming overly full, which decreases pressure on the lower esophageal sphincter. Other options, such as drinking fluids during meals, can exacerbate heartburn by adding volume to the stomach, and lying down after eating can cause stomach acid to move upward into the esophagus. Avoiding cold beverages is not typically linked to heartburn relief.
