Morning sickness or food poisoning? Help me.

kabnpauj · June 2015

I'm now 20w. I finally felt better and can eat at 16w. I was up and going with no nausea! This past Sunday, i went to eat at Dennys. I got the banana bread breakfast with hash brown, bacon and sausage, and scrambled eggs. I started to feel sick after eating that I had to go home and rest/sleep the rest of the day. I threw up after I ate dinner that night (1st time since i was 16w). I'm feeling like crap right now at work. Couldn't keep anything down. I had some cereal this morning and drank lots of water and it all came out. I wondered if my morning sickness came back or I was food poisoned! Should I call my ob to check? Go to see him? I've bothered him for every little thing, and if it's not serious, I'd rather not contact him.

No forget that. You're not bothering him. He's paid well to do this. Sounds hormonal but please go check it out.

Having had both morning sickness and food poisoning this year, I'd say that if it was MUCH worse than your normal morning sickness, it's food poisoning. I was dealing with vomiting and diarrhea for about 36 hours. Not much they can do but monitor your symptoms and if it got really bad, then pump you with fluids. I would still call your doctor though, to be sure.

Sounds like a tummy bug. I wouldn't necessarily blame the food either. You could have a little virus.

Thanks ladies. I'm still feeling sick so I'll call him tomorrow. I came home early and slept for 5 hours. Going to try and eat dinner and hope to keep it down.
