Why did breech tilt relieve my heartburn?

[Ravin]

Can anyone tell me? I'm at 37 wks and baby boy is stubbornly still head-up, so I've made spinningbabies.com my friend. Tried the breech tilt for the 2nd time today, and really wasn't looking forward to it because of my afternoon heartburn...but it actually went away when I got into position. Came right back when I got up, though.

What's up with that?

That's weird cuz you would think it'd be the other way around.  Maybe the tilt made some non-acidic stuff wash up (yuck!) along with the acid? Did it happen again like you described?
