Is it normal to have severe heartburn in the early stages of pregnancy?

I have a feeling that i may be pregnant but just haven’t got round to taking a test yet. I have suffered severe heartburn, dizziness and slight nausea in the past 4 days. I know that nausea is a common pregnancy symptom, but it is normal to have heartburn this early on in pregnancy? I would be two weeks maximum! Any advise would be gratefully received!!

This is common. Take either Zantac or Prilosec once a day. Then use Tums (chewable calcium tabs) for breakthrough heartburn. All these meds are OTC and fine to take while pregnant.
i had heart burn way early not that early but like 5 weeks – 10-weeks
yes it is. My first pregnancy I had to walk around with a bottle of tums and a bag of saltine crackers. (for the first trimester)
