I don't want to give real medical advice over the internet, but feeling dizzy and not peeing are definite red flags to consider!

I wanted to suggest pedialyte to drink rather than just water. Your body will absorb the fluid much more efficiently! Hang in there, being sick while pregnant is awful.

i had a high fever and was pretty shaky at 38w4d and overall felt terrible, so my OB told me to go to L&D to get checked out. they gave me two bags of fluid because i was so dehydrated. turns out i had the flu. they prescribed tamiflu and i felt 90% better within 24 hours. i finished my meds 2 days before i delivered!

the fluids helped a lot! a nurse also recommended a mix of gatorade and water (like 50/50) to get electrolytes and fluids down. i went through a lot of that!

I had an episode of vomiting during my last pregnancy. The second time I vomitted I went to the PETU but I also work in a hospital so it made it easy. Even though I only vomitted twice I had abnormal labs and enough concern for them to give me fluids. They also offered IV Zofran which I said no to initially but continued to throw up so I agreed and that was the last time I vomitted. I know it's not ideal but I would get checked out. Rather be safe than sorry especially when it come to you and LO.

If you can't keep water down and aren't peeing much, it's time to go in.

I had HG so I was admitted to the hospital at 8 & 12 weeks. First time, I was at the OB office and told her I was throwing up for days and hardly keeping anything down. Second time, I was throwing up and at one point throwing up bile every 10 minutes. I couldn't even call the OB, DH called for me and they told me to come in. Since I had HG my nausea was a bit more severe.

I was told to go to the hospital if I had trouble keeping water down.

If I were you, I would go and get checked out. They can check your urine to see if you are dehydrated. They may give you different meds to control your nausea.
