Crampy diarrhoea
I woke up last night with really nasty crampy diarrhoea. It lasted about an
hour, and then I managed to get back to sleep. Today I feel a bit nauseous, but mostly o.k. Do I need to worry at all? I am 12 weeks pregnant, and even though this is my second pregnancy, I feel so much more anxious than last time. I tried contacting my midwife, but she is away. I'm probably just being paranoid, but until I can see or hear a heartbeat, I get the feeling I'm going to be a worry-wort! Cathy |

She's had diarrhoea off and on a couple of times and feels a bit nauseous now and then but no throwing up. Only your midwife or OB will know for sure, but I think you're fine. |

Cathy I got it a few times in my 1st and second trimesters, don't think it was related to the pregnancy, more someone elses cooking..lol..try not to worry, says me who worries right up until I can see them with my own eyes...and still keep worrying!

I sort of assumed I was fine, but wanted reassurance. I'll try and contact my midwife tomorrow, just in case. Cathy |

Alissa I think I may have overindulged yesterday on avocado, so that could have been the problem. I am someone who never gets ill (other than colds), so things like this make me think the worst. I know what you mean about the worrying. My midwife asked me why I am so anxious this time round. Last time, it was only a concept of a baby - I didn't know what it would be like. Now I know, and that makes me so much more concerned. Thanks for your reply. Cathy |

Crampy diarrhoea
I had gastroenteritis in my second trimester. I just called the docs and
they were not concerned one bit Its probably more uncomfortable for you than the kiddo. Just make the phone call to the midwife and then you can relax -- M~Elizabeth To thine own self be true "Cathy" wrote in message ... I woke up last night with really nasty crampy diarrhoea.

No, this is no problem at all, just keep drinking enough fluids and if it continues for another couple of days, see a doctor about this. The harm is usually to your own body, the baby is very well protected. It is normal for such things to take a bit longer to improve than when you're not pregnant, but even a full-fledged stomach flu cannot do much harm (BTDT). -- -- I mommy to DS (July '02) mommy to three tiny angels (28 Oct'03, 17 Feb'04 & 20 May'04) guardian of DH (33) |
