q about stomach bug and pg
There is a bad stomach bug (vomiting and diarrhoea) going around this town
atm. Since just about everybody I know has had it, I'm guessing that we probably won't escape (esp.since I seem to catch every bug that comes along). Last time we got it I was still bf DD so she never came down with it ... I'm also dreading her getting the bug. I know to try and keep hydrated and I know only to take in a small amount of clear liquid at a time, but does anyone have any other tips. I figure that the baby should be OK so long as there is no high temps or bad dehydration ... that's right isn't it?? Amanda - just trying to be prepared. -- DD 15th August 2002 1 tiny angel Nov 2003 EDD 19th August 2004 |

I couldn't eat much more than crackers, but I was able to keep myself hydrated with liquids. It lasted a day, with no bad effects. Nan |

I just finished catching my 2nd bout of gastro-enteritis and ended up going to the ER for the second time. NOT nice. And it takes a team of wild horses to make me go to a hospital. Both times I was only able to take in water and even that was getting thrown up within minutes. So they had to push a couple of bags of fluid into me and give me an anti emetic. The second time they gave me a WAY better anti emetic but it made into a total zombie. Thank goodness my husband was able to stay home with our dear little toddler for a day. So uh....yeah...avoid that bug with as much soap as possible! ~Daednu |
