Stomach Virus..... Help!

I'm 6 months pregnant and I believe I have a stomach virus. I've been up since 3 am with diarrhea and throwing up non-stop. I've called my primary care doctor 3 times with no answer and I have an appointment tomorrow with my OB doctor. What can I do or should I do in the mean time? I don't want this to harm my daughter, I feel awful :(

If you haven't been able to keep anything down for awhile I'd give your ob a call. They may want you to go in for iv fluids.

I got it a couple weeks ago. My doctor had me go to L&D so they could make sure i was hydrated and give me some meds to control the vomiting.
