Kirsty - you're not possibly in prelabour are you hope it is that rather than gastro???? Hugs for you darl I hope you can grab some rest today if Gemma has some sleep such that if it is a bug in your system you can get rid of it quickly and be on the improve by next week.
I had pneumonia the week before I had Samuel and was in hospital for two days only to come out and go back on the following Tuesday for the c/s. I was in two minds to have it or not cause I was so crook but the physical relief of not having to carry and grow a baby in me at the same time trying to fight an infection enabled me to improve a lot faster (although coughing up a lung with a c/s scar is another thing LOL!!) - plus being in hospital with a new baby although still waking for feeds and everything allowed me to rest at times that I normally wouldn't. I know its not the same as gastro as its not contagious but I'm pretty sure that the gastro bug doesn't actually hang around that long and would be out of your system by next wed its just the recovery due to dehydration and associated weakness that is hard to get on top and recover from ( my unmedical opinion and all).
Then again if you are feeling really bad and the docs aren't keen I'm sure they'd let it slide a day or too until they think its best for both you and your little girl.
Hoping Gemma improves quickly too
