Can heartburn predict how much hair a baby will have? A small study published in Birth in 2006 explored that familiar pregnancy belief.
The study involved 64 pregnant women and found an association between reported heartburn severity and newborn hair volume. An association in a small study does not predict an individual baby's appearance or show that the baby's hair causes heartburn.
Heartburn symptoms deserve care on their own. Ask your prenatal healthcare professional about symptoms and suitable treatment rather than using this finding to judge your baby's development.
