I had Norovirus during the second trimester and it was miserable! But baby was okay. It took me forever to feel better though.

I had norovirus at 27 weeks with my first. Puking and on the toilet every hour. I was advised to go get fluids if I couldn't keep anything down for 8 hours. I came close, but never had to go to ER. My son is now a healthy almost 4 year old Hang in there!

@MrsSCB: It tapered off by the end, but I basically was too scared to leave the house, lol. Mine wasn't vomiting, though At least it keeps you from throwing up super acidic bile?....

Poor you. With my DS I got a stomach flu at 17 weeks that lasted @ 2 days. It's the worst. Baby was fine though, as they are rarely affected by these things. Get well soon!

I had something 2 weeks ago (I was 34 weeks) where I couldn't keep anything down, including liquids. I ended up being dehydrated and was admitted for low amniotic fluid levels. They put an IV in for 24 hours and my fluid levels went back up. Despite that, the baby was totally fine the whole time (we did NST monitoring during my 1.5 day stay).

I had a stomach bug/food poisoning at 14 weeks. I never throw up - I can count the times on my hand that I've thrown up and I threw up with this bug. I didn't have a fever and was able to stay hydrated. A few days later though I had a partial placental abruption and I am not sure if it was related to violently throwing up and my body/abdomen not being used to it or not. I had to stay off my feet for 2 weeks but have had no complications since then and am in my last trimester.
I hope you feel better soon.

I ended up with a horrendous flu the DAY I was scheduled to get my flu shot. I believe I was about 18 weeks. I ended up being admitted for fluids, as I couldn't keep anything down. It was beyond rough, but baby was perfectly safe, throughout.

Yes my experience was exactly the same as yours. Around 15/16 weeks I felt a little funny in the afternoon and then was vomiting all night long through the morning. It was like every 5 minutes at the worst. I couldn't keep liquids down or pee so I went to the ER for fluids and Zofran. Everything turned out fine. I was so worried about the baby but he was perfectly healthy. Hope you feel better soon!

@MrsSCB: I hope you are now feeling better!!
with LO2 I had about the same thing at 12 weeks or so, and we were on a vacation

Puking all day and the other were such fun in a hotel. the phone doc did prescribe me Zofran as we were scared I wouldn't be able to travel home! (I finally improved enough to fly home)

@MrsSCB: Oh no! I'm so sorry you are having to deal with this. One of my best friends had food poisoning during her last pregnancy. She threw up so much and so hard that she was hemorrhaging blood. She had to go to the hospital. But the baby was fine!! 10+ pounder when he was born. You should be okay!

Ugggg, I'm 16 weeks now and had a virus/or food-related thing earlier in my pregnancy and honestly don't know when I've ever been more miserable. I am so sorry. But yes, everything will be totally fine. Viruses are everywhere and I feel like when you're pregnant you're also just so susceptible to everything, food sensitivity included. Feel better and take care!

I had a stomach bug once with my first pregnancy and twice with my second! Both pregnancies I had it during the first trimester at least once. It wasn't at all fun, and I'm so sorry you're sick, but both of my babies were perfectly healthy. I worried just as much as you did, though, and moreso with my first pregnancy. I was freaked out about listeriosis, etc., too, but all was well. Just know that your worrying is absolutely normal. Hope you are feeling better soon!

I got one during my first trimester with my second kid and two during the third trimester with my fourth kid. I felt awful, but baby(wel, both babies) were fine!
