food poisoning



I think I had food poisoning last night. Chills, sweats, in the bathroom all night..

I don't know if it was what I atefor lunch or dinner, but either way...can this hurt the baby?

Hmmmm...I don't think so, but I'm not sure. It's worth a call to the Dr. just to be safe.

Hope you're feeling better

I had food poisoning and the stomach flu when I was pregnant. It sounds like you had the stomach flu. The only way these can hurt the baby is if you become dehydrated. The stomach flu passes in 12-24 hours while food poisoning takes a little longer. They had me on an IV for the FP and it passed a little faster and kept the baby safe.


Good Luck! I hope you feel better!

It might be the stomach Flu...I had food poisoning, and it didnt hit me till about a day or 2 after I ate the food.

I had the stomach flu in the 4th month of pregnancy---NOT FUN!!! Eventhough it is hard, you have to drink A LOT OF water. The baby will not be hurt unless you become dehydrated, so keep up with the fluids.

I hope you feel better very soon!
