Food poisoning/stomach virus

Emily • Married for over 2 years, TTC for over 1 year, 2 previous MMC, expecting my rainbow baby Sept. 2016! 💕
I'm 26 weeks and have had some sort of stomach bug for the last 24 hours. NOTHING will stay down. I think I'm starting to dehydrate because I have a headache and some lower back pain. Has anyone had a bug that lasted longer than 24 hours? I was hoping it would be over by now! I'm nervous that dehydration will affect the baby.

Try something like Gatorade along with your water, or lemonade. Sometimes when you drink a lot of water your body doesn't absorb it unless you have some electro lights to help. Or sprinkle a bit of salt in your water. Sounds weird but it helps.

I had a stomach thing a couple of weeks ago at 25 weeks (inlaws bbq). It lasted a couple of days. Just keep drinking lots and lots. If it lasts too much longer maybe see the doctor. I've seen baby since and all is well so just look after both of you and try to rest if you can.
