Is it super concentrated (dark yellow), or are you going very rarely? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-when-youve-lost-too-much-fluid#post-1252766 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 23:11:06 +0000 immabeetoo 1252766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: I say trust yourself - if it sounds good and it stays down, eat it!

They said anything you can do to get fluid (apart from alcohol, lol) is good. Sorry you feel so bad, I hope it gets better for you soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-when-youve-lost-too-much-fluid#post-1252758 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 23:01:40 +0000 deerylou 1252758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a pretty bad virus at 18 weeks and needed to be checked into the hospital, where I got three bags of IV fluids. It was to the point where I wasn't really urinating and was vomiting bile. I should have come in sooner, as I was really dehydrated.</p> <p>I really hope you find something that stays down, but definitely trust you gut, and head in if you're concerned. Feel better, soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-when-youve-lost-too-much-fluid#post-1252755 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 22:58:43 +0000 MrsSCB 1252755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh I'm so sorry, I really feel for you. I'm not pregnant BUT I had a stomach bug that had me throwing up and unable to even eat ice chips all day last Sunday so I can sympathize with the getting sick part! I think when you're pregnant it can't hurt to be extra cautious. If you can't keep down water for more than just a short period of time, I'd go in to get checked out and get some fluid in you. Better safe than sorry! :-( I hope you start feeling better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-when-youve-lost-too-much-fluid#post-1252754 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 22:57:08 +0000 HLK208 1252754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: thanks, I know this sounds terrible to have while pregnant but I've only been craving diet coke and I've started to freeze it into ice cubes which is the only thing I really kept down most of today. I'm not sure what's worse: drinking aspartame and caffeine or losing fluid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-when-youve-lost-too-much-fluid#post-1252751 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 22:52:59 +0000 immabeetoo 1252751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: :( no advice, just hope you stop feeling/being so sick soon. would popsicles help? frozen grapes? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-when-youve-lost-too-much-fluid#post-1252750 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 22:49:07 +0000 MamaMoose 1252750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the stomach flu at 15 weeks an my doc sent me to the ER when it got to the point that I was vomitting bile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-when-youve-lost-too-much-fluid#post-1252749 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 22:47:35 +0000 HLK208 1252749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been sick all weekend (threw up 7 times total - pretty sure it's HG not just morning sickness) and now (tmi) I've had the runs for 24 hrs (ahhh, I hate talking about it). Drinking water makes me sick so I've been chewing on ice.</p> <p>When will I know if I've lost too much fluid? I'm calling my doctor in the morning. I'm pretty sure I should have had an IV of fluid when I was pregnant last as I was getting sick 3-5 times a day and my face was totally gray for awhile. But I'm just not sure when I should go in... </p>
