Stomach Flu

@swathyI was thinking that at first but I don’t think so because of the body aches.
Yes. I went to the ER and they put me on an IV because it dehydrated me. Just make sure you try your hardest to keep yourself hydrated.
@Jackie I am trying! It’s hard to consume anything. I did end up calling my doctor and she said if I can’t keep anything down within 24 hours to go to the ER for IV fluids. I have had maybe a few sips of water since midnight but I feel I might be able to drink a little soon
@Liz That’s good don’t try and drink too much at a time. Just small sips often. There’s this Gatorade water that has electrolytes I would try and get that if you can.
@Jackie thank you! I’ll try to get that drink
@Jackie do you remember if you felt better after getting IV fluids?
@Liz No, I was so miserable. I just had to let it run its course. I couldn’t tell the difference of being hydrated or dehydrated because even when they hydrated me, I still felt terrible.
@Jackie good to know. This sucks lol
@Liz Yes I know! Sleep & water are your best friends rn lbs
@Liz They have it at target and Walmart. Maybe other places too that I don’t know of.
I had had stomach flu but not while I was pregnant. You got to let it just pass that's all I can say. There no cure. It cures within a day or two. My baby had it as well so it was definitely a difficult time. Are u sure u aren't haven't nausea from being oregnant?
