She wrote: "24 weeks baby!!!! I craving tomatoes but they give me heartburn.."
Fans flooded the comments with a mix of concern and advice.
One helpful fan wrote: "Eat a tums before hand it should help."
A second suggested: "Try yellow tomatoes. They're not as acidic."
Reaching 25 weeks a few days ago, Amy admitted she and Michael already have several "horror-related" names in mind for their second baby.
Amy shared a photo from an app that revealed her baby is now 13.5 inches in length and 1.5 pounds.
It also explained the developments in her son, saying: "Your baby will soon exchange his long, lean look for some baby fat.
"His wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll look more like a newborn. He'll also grow more hair."
