Pure torture! I'm 9 weeks and have had pretty good control over my morning sickness. But when this flu bug hit me, I barfed more times than I can count. It's day 2 now and I'm starting to feel life come back to me. But I wouldn't wish this hell on anyone. Just thought I'd share this little bit of pain with ya'll.
Re: Stomach flu + pregnancy =
I just got it this past week (I'm 16 weeks). I guess it's going around my area now, but I'm on day 4 and only feeling slightly better. I am hydrating like crazy, but so dizzy. Normally, I would be like "whatever," and work through it at full speed as usual, but being pregnant makes it a whole new ballgame, doesn't it? The doctor said I'll be fine and put me on 3 days' rest, but I worry about every little thing with this being my first pregnancy. Especially since I hardly ever get sick. Blech!
