Stomach bug - 1st trimeat ugh

Has anyone had a stomach bug in the 1st tri? I picked something up while flying home from the carribean ugh. I puked only once and now it's just the runs constantly. I've been able to drink water and am peeing ok. I have had a few crackers throughout the day. Do I need to buzz my dr? I am 10.5 weeks. I have a Doppler and can find the baby's heart beat and also read stomach bugs rarely affect growing fetuses. But wasn't sure if I should give them a call today or wait till tomorrow morning.

I had the stomach virus twice this pregnancy, once at 18 weeks and then again at like 28 weeks. I would try drinking pedilatye! At 18 weeks I was so dehydrated and went to the hospital for two bags of fluid. The second time I just drank a liter of pedilatye and was fine 24 hours later! Hang in there!

I had one at exactly 11 weeks. Picked it up from dd who had it two days before. I felt ill all day and all morning had diarrhea and was puking. To top it off I had to do my verifii blood work that morning and I felt like crap.

Just stay hydrated and rest. It will pass and baby is fine.

I had a bug when I was 5weeks. it lasted about 3-4 days of complete water diarrhea. I only threw up once when it first started. I was worried too but just kept my self hydrated, drank lots of Gatorade and chicken broth with saltines. feel better!

DD1, I had a stomach virus around 8w. I threw up about every hour for around 7-8 hours. I didn't call my dr bc it all happened in the middle of the night.

DD2 I've had 2 stomach viruses, one in the 1st trimester which was pretty mild. The second was at around 18w and I was throwing up with diarrhea about every 20-30 minutes. I called my dr who sent me to L&D for fluids. I couldn't even take a sip of water without throwing it up 5 minutes later.

Just keep drinking water and you should be fine. If you start throwing up excessively and are unable to keep anything like water or Gatorade down, then call your dr.

I just had one at 9 weeks- no puking but beat me up pretty bad.. Chills fever horrific nausea fatigue body aches. No eating or drinking for nearly two days- slept it off. Now trying to rehydrate. Feel better

Re: Stomach bug - 1st trimeat ugh

i had it at 8 weeks and again at 22 weeks this pregnancy.

I just did my best to stay hydrated. drank as much gatorade as I could keep down. It wiped me out pretty bad both times and was extra annoying cause I have been sick and puking my entire pregnancy as it is (still going at 31 weeks)

Good luck! Hope you feel better soon!

Re: Stomach bug - 1st trimeat ugh

This is the worst. I just recovered from one I caught from DS when I was 11 weeks. I threw up constantly for the next two weeks, lost 5 pounds and subsisted on gatorade. I talked to my Dr a couple of times b/c I wasn't sure if/when I was actually dehydrated. They did not seem worried if I was still going to the bathroom at all and could get out of bed.

Hope you feel better soon. And I hope you don't get it again!!!
