Would I go to a regular doctor for this?

Question

Little bit of TMI! But I’m 32 weeks pregnant and I’ve been experiencing diarrhea for the past couple of days but today I got a really bad sore throat, headache and I feel very weak & shaky. I’m scared I may have the flu or strep😬. I called my OB yesterday because of the diarrhea and she told me to keep a bland diet which I have, but I got new symptoms today and i was wondering if I should go to the regular doctor tomorrow to get tested for strep and the flu or if I should go to my OB? I’m a first time mom so I’m not sure what to do!

Answer

Brat diet for diarrhea. Bananas Rice Apples Toast. You can use crackers or unsweetened apple sauce.Keep your self hydrated you need electrolytes. Gatorade water half and half. Or use pedialyte they have freezer pops to.  Ice chips are good too. Definitely go get your self checked urgent care, ob, or primary who ever can get you in asap.

Answer

Call your on and she’ll let you know. Mine sent me to urgent care to get swabbed for the flu.

Answer

I'd call your OB before you make an appointment. If she or he will see you I'd go there. If you don't want to call and you just want to go in, I'd go straight to your OB. I went to mine when I had the flu my last pregnancy. They can't do much but it's to make sure everything else is normal.
