IIRC, heartburn during pregnancy correlates with babies with lots of hair. For whatever that's worth.
I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

That's interesting! I had no heartburn, and all three kids were born with very little white-blond fuzz.

I'll have to ask my mother, because I was born with an inch of dark hair all over my little noggin -- looked like I had stuck my finger in a socket.

It's definitely held true among the 4 moms/6 kids in my building. (My understanding is it's a real statistical correlation but honestly not really worth studying so nobody knows what the actual connection is.)

Ha, my mom must have had awful heartburn, then, because I came out looking like those troll dolls.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Interesting. In my case it simply correlated with third trimester. The first came out pert near hairless, but the second had a full head of hair.
