Hello dear ,I understand your concern.In my opinion gastritis is routinely seen during pregnancy especially in 2 nd trimester due to influence of hormones and also sometimes due to iron supplements.You can take digene tablet three times a day.It is not going to harm your baby.Avoid spicy diet and tamarind in food.Take food in small quantities every 2 hrly.Include curd or butter milk in diet definitely.These measures along with medicine decrease the acidity.
