Should I be concerned?

I am under the weather a bit. Some sort of bug, not full force flu or
anything.....but diarrhea started yesterday and continues today......feeling
a tad queasy......tired. Nothing else though, no cramps etc, baby is moving
fine (I'm nearing 31 weeks) and all that......I am trying to just drink tons
of water (some with lemon) and Red Raspberry Leaf tea........toast
etc........should I call midwife if it continues or just rest up and relax?
I know pregnant women get sick all the time........I've done homeopathic
remedies for flu prevention etc so I know I could be alot worse right now if
not for that..........
Thanks.

April,

I'm feeling the SAME way! We ARE twins!!!

I had the "feeling" of diarrhea yesterday, but it began today. I've been
slightly "off" for a few days now.

This morning I ate a grilled cheese sandwich and a couple eggs for breakfast
(which I normally skip). I added a banana and had some Atkins chocolate
milk in hopes that I may feel better.

So far, a tinge of nauseau (which I'm not used to since I've not had ANY
morning sickness) and diarrhea.

Hmmm....a bug? Hormones? Need more rest?

Carol Ann,

LOL....let's commiserate together?

I have been run down, so I know that is a factor. I do so much with my 4 yr
old, it's hard to just stop, especially since DH works shifts so many days
or nights I am on my own, no rest for me. I try more though now.

How did you keep all that food down? I guess I better go graze a bit
more........make sure I get enough in there even if half comes out. Baby is
moving nicely so I am not freaking out or anything.......just being careful.

((hugs))

I think fever is what you have to be concerned about. A tummy bug
should be fine.

I am always amazed at just how much food I can consume and not feel satiated
AND how I just can't seem to "upchuck" even when I want to!
