      Hi Arora,

      From what I know, heart burn isn’t a nice feeling or thing to have! I think we get it when the acid that breaks up the food we eat in our tummy goes the wrong way! It comes up instead of down through the intestine and it is painful. It isn’t painful when the acid is in our stomach as our tummy can deal with that! I learnt that doing science at school!

      To add to what Lauren already said, a lot of pregnant mothers get heartburn sometimes! It’s definitely harmless, but just makes it uncomfortable for a period of time!

      Michael 🙂
