The stomach bug while prego=no fun

Hrhodes78 · February 2014

I threw up in the shower this morning. It was different than my morning sickness pukes as food actually came up and I didn't feel better afterwards. In fact I felt super wiped out. I was queezy and couldn't eat much of anything all day. I'm hoping I'll feel better tomorrow.

If not I guess I should call the dr huh?

I've had two gastro bugs during this pregnancy, it sucks, luckily both of mine were fairly short lived, first was just a 24 hour thing in December and the second one was just a couple weeks ago, it was more 48 hours. I have a nurse friend, she said if I couldn't hold anything down for more than an hour after 48 hours I should get checked out. I started holding down sips of water and flat ginger ale before then so I never went to the dr.
Hope it doesn't last long!

I had the bug last week. I'm so sorry!! It is awful! Biggest thing is to stay hydrated (easier said than done when nothing stays down). I found the ice push up Popsicles helped, gingerale and Gatorade were good too. Hope you feel better soon!!!
