I am 10 wks and I experienced food poisoningPoisoning first aid last night and am very concerned and curiuos if the fetus is/was effected? And what I should do?
Poor thing that most feel awful. Baby will not be affected by it. However try to keep drinking fluids so you remain hydrated and rest if dizziness sets in.
I agree w/ Harley-girl on this one, my friend got it during the day while pg so she went onto the Dr & they gave her something for N/v but her baby was fine & so was she, also if this ever happens while you BF (happened to the same friend again this time at night)the Dr told her to just pump out her breast milkBreast milk Breast milk jaundice Lactose intolerance Nipple discharge - abnormal & pour it out for the night (luckily her DD slept all night)& then once the am was here she could BF again. Both were fine. I know you still want to check w/ the DR but you are probably fine along w/ the babe on the way:) LOVE & PRAYERS
Hi...hope you'll feel better soon. I had a similar experience early in pregnancy. Don't worry, the baby's fine...like the ladies mentioned above make sure you keep hydrated.
Fortunately for the baby it is well protected against anything like this that the mother feels. From food poisoningPoisoning first aid to really bad flu or cold. The baby takes what it needs first before the mother so it always has enough nutrients...that's why we must keep up our own. Be careful about getting dehyrdrated during food poisoning if throwing up and having diarrohea. Baby will be fine and eventually you will too!
^^My exact thoughts. I think I ate some undercooked chicken last night. I haven't been able to stop throwing up since last night, and my stomach is upset. I am 15 weeks 3 days and have not had morning sickness at all. So this is strange to me.
im 24 weeks pregnant just got food poisoning for the first time i had to go to the hospital and get iv's it is painful i never want to eat meat again :( and to top it all of i was sick for the first 17 weeks being pregnant is hard work:(
