OK may seem like a basic question - but if I wasn't pregnant I probably wouldn't be asking it.
Yesterday I was feeling quite off and ate hardly anything all day - which is not like me at all (I'm a big eater, and even more since being pregnant) but my temp was fine, so it was just like I was having an off day. Didn't feel like chocolate or anything, which is like, a miracle.
So today, I woke up and started getting the runs. And I haven't stopped. All this morning (at least every half an hour) I would have to run my preggers waddly body down to the loo. Which isn't easy, especially when you have a 16 month old trailing your every move and sitting next to you whilst you ... release your bowels.
So the IL's came and got him at lunch time, and I've been napping on and off since then, my tummy is gurgling like you wouldn't believe, have the maddest yukkiest noises coming from in there, and sometimes quite painful belly pain. I haven't felt bubs move in a while (which is probably normal, might be sleeping) and I have a slight temp (37.3 - my normal temp on the thermometer we have is around 35.9) and I haven't been able to eat anything today. I had toast and a cup of tea, and went straight to the loo, so haven't seen the point letting good food go to waste!!! I've been drinking water though, although not as much as I had yesterday.
So my question is, how long can a pregnant body go without proper food for?? And can anyone suggest anything other than water to drink cos after two days of it, i'm getting a little sick of it. (not to mention no chocolate is going in! I do have to feed my double chin you know... )
So when would you go to the doc - considering I haven't felt him/her move in a while and I've been sick?? Not that I'm too worried, he/she is probably taking cover because he/she thinks their world is exploding from all the noise!!!!
