When to worry?

Question

I’m 14w3d and I started getting stomach cramps and ended up running to the bathroom with nausea and diarrhea. Now I’m having horrible lower back pain and I’m cramping with a little bit of pressure down there. Should I worry or wait it out and see if it gets any better? I’m currently laying down with a heating pad.

Answer

You could call your doctor and ask. Some precut watermelon and other melons were just recalled in some states for salmonella if you want to google that if you’ve had any.

Answer

Agree with what the other Nicole posted. Call your doctor if you're worried. No concern is too little, and they are here to help you, especially if you get dehydrated.

Answer

I had a stomach bug when I was 5 weeks and it was terrifying. Try and stay hydrated and rest.  What helped me some was taking a warm bath it helped soothe the cramping. My doctor was not concerned as long as I was able to keep food/water down. And they asked if I ever saw blood which I never did , so I'd just watch for any bleeding and try to stay comfortable!

Answer

Oh man, I caught a tummy bug a few weeks ago and felt very similar. Literally was in fetal position for 24 hours. Remember our immune systems are weaker so if you don’t usual catch tummy bugs, it could happen more often while pregnant. 
I would say always call your doctor if you’re really fearful. No amount of message boards or googling will ease your mind like a medical professional. 
What I would suggest in the meantime is to hydrate like crazy. I know it’s probably hard to keep things down, but get some body armor drinks and switch that out with water off and on. Eating is important, yes, but keeping hydrating will help those cramps if they’re related to dehydration. 
Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Answer

Is it the 💩 s? That can be very painful and can cause the cramping and overall uneasy feeling. If you aren’t spotting or bleeding hold off a little bit, lay on your left side and see if it passes. It happens to me when I suddenly need to go.
