Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of you being pregnant 31 weeks with the first child, Starting today, you burped and the sulfur/rotten egg taste is unbearable, there is nausea and fear of vomiting hence you are not getting out of bed. You have been munching on tums hoping it will help, which it is not helping:
This indicates that there is sort of gastritis with GERD that has caused the retained stomach content to regurge to give you the typical bad taste which is more altered due to pregnancy.
I would advise you the following:
Get to the Doctor as you need clinical evaluation, tests of blood, urine and stool in particular to find out that you are not suffering from low grade gastroenteritis which can manifest so soon.
Hence this will allow the immediate symptomatic treatment as well as the treatment of the cause.
I find this answer helpful
