Is the baby ok? Possible food poisoning...

[Serenitylee]

Yesterday I had my usual fruit for morning tea and lunch and in the afternoon at about 2 I went for a walk with my sister to the bank and I was still a bit hungry so grabbed a little peice of pizza from a take away shop and so did my sister. For tea we also had chicken kievs which were well cooked. I went to bed at 9pm and woke up that night feeling sick and it soon got a bit worse when I felt I was going to throw up so I went to the toilet and thought it may make me feel better...anyway I grabbed a bucket and towel to put at my bedisde to be safe and well not long after hopping back to bed I threw up quite a few times and after resting for about half an hour I got out of bed to try and get a drink but as soon as I stood up I had to be sick again so I had to get my father to get me a drink (stayed the night at parents while partner was away). Well after finally getting some water into me and getting comfortable again it was the last of the throwing up and I got back to sleep. I have no idea if I had suffered a case of food poisoning or jsut caught some gastro as on the weekend my sister just woke up and had to be sick and that was it. She went back to bed and was fine! So I am thinking it was more gastro maybe? I didn't have any severe stomach cramps and still haven't and I haven't had any bleeding but am just worried if it was food poisoning that bub may have been affected?

Any advice would be great.

Thanks

It sounds like you might have caught a 24 hr bug of some kind. However, if you are concerned about the baby, I would see a doctor just for peace of mind. With all the protection the baby has and your immune system built to protect the baby, I would ink the baby is ok, However, maybe see a doctor just to be sure.

Let me know how you go

Have you had a fever?

If you had a fever was maybe a bug or food poisoning....if no fever then maybe your belly just didn't like the combination?

The further you are along in your preg the more resilient bubs is to this kind of thing.

I had food poisoning at 18 wks and was petrified, I had food poisoning previously at around 9 wks and had a missed m/c. I had it all checked, bubs was just fine.

Doesn't sound like gastro which lingers for more than a couple of hours - more a bug I think too, especially if you didnt have stomach cramps.

Thank you guys!

Well I have another appt with the hospital on Tuesday so think I may hold out until then. I just had a nap and got up and had a big cold drink and as soon as i sat down i felt some little thumping around down there so that is a good sign that bub is moving around

I just immediately panicked when I was sick and though oh no food poisoning! then immediately panicked about bubs.

Thanks again guys
