Sick of being sick - Diarrhea in 3rd trimester
I’m about 36 weeks along and entirely done dealing with these stomach issues.
For about 5 days now I can’t seem to digest any solid food. I eat and anywhere from 5 minutes to 2 hours later I get diarrhea. The sooner it starts the more I can visibly see the food I didn’t digest.
I can’t get a full nights sleep, I’m getting headaches from trying to keep up with hydrating while the baby gives me little bladder space to do so. Over all I’m exhausted from lack of rest and I’m sure lack of nutrients.
The only thing close to food I’ve been able to get my system to accept has been a couple smoothies. Smoothies are great but expensive to buy or make at home.
My doctor knows about all this and doesn’t seem concerned, but does have me watching for any labour signs. I’m starting to really stress out.
Has anyone been through something similar in late pregnancy? What did your doctor say or recommend?
I just want to eat without having to rush to the bathroom immediately😭 the holidays are coming up and I won’t be able to eat anything outside of my own home comfortably at this rate😢
