Depends on type: There are different types of Gaviscon and I'm not sure which type you are asking about. I'd avoid the types that have aluminum hydroxide as aluminum is toxic to developing babies (and adults too). However, some forms just have calcium and alginates which are safe.But there are also a variety of home remedies such as apple cider vinegar that can help- see https://earthclinic.com/ailments/heartburn/
