Is it safe to be pregnant with pre existing gerd is it a risk or can it be managed.i understand it cn increase acid being pregnant but will it be harmful to me and baby?

Best: Would be to establish with Obs-Gyn in preconceiving stage so that goals and expectations can be established early. GERD might get worse during pregnancy otherwise and addressing it as early as possible should only help.
