With my first 2 pregnancies I got the flu and couldn't keep anything down. My ob told me to go to the ER because dehydration could result in brain damage for the baby. Not trying to scare you but don't wait to at least talk to someone.

Yes I agree bcuz it could be really dangerous to get dehydrated. Keep trying to get through, they don't have an answering service?

If you cant hold water down your best bet is to go to the hospital and get fluids through an iv. I had that bug and was completely miserable!
