Please help. I'm 21 weeks pregnant and...?

Question

I got really sick this morning. It just came on all of a sudden, I just got a stomachache and then all of a sudden ran to the bathroom and got sick. At 9am I ate a bowl or so of cereal then got sick at around 11:30. What are some reasons to get sick at 21 weeks pregnant? I had horrible morning sickness but it hasn't been a problem since about 13 weeks.. I got sick one other time after eating and taking a cough drop but the dr said the cough drop was probably too strong for my stomach. I just want to make sure I don't need to make an appointment to make sure its not something serious or that its hurting the baby. Thanks!

Answer 1

About a week or so ago I had the same thing... it was like the stomach flu and it only lasted 24 hours.  Just make sure you are keeping hydrated.  If that isn't how you feel it may just be one of those things that happens during pregnancy as long as you can keep foods down now I wouldn't worry too much. You might try some toast or crackers. If it makes you feel better talk to your dr.

Answer 2

throwing up won't hurt he baby unless you get dehydrated. i've heard of women with morning sickness in the beginning have it come back later in pregnancy, which sucks, but is normal. try to eat lots of small meals that are easy on your tummy to keep it down. if you get a fever or other symptoms you should call your doctor and update them just in case its the beginning of some kind of flu or virus.

i had a couple bouts of vomiting since my morning sickness subsided, and it didn't go on for more than a day. i hope you feel better! and congrats on being halfway there!! <3

Answer 3

honestly you may be just not feeling too good, or that wonderful morning sickness could be back. I had morning sickness from 6-14 weeks, I thought I had seen the last of that c**p until this last weekend, I am 23 weeks and I have afternoon sickness, which is better then the all day sickness I had before, but I feel like c**p again and must take a nap in the afternoon. This could be the problem or maybe you just have a little bug

Answer 4

I'm 38 weeks and been sick the whole time of my pregnancy some people just sick there whole time. Long as your gaining enough weight its not a problem. I got put on medicine because mine was so bad an it actually helped a lot. If you think yours is bad tell you Doctor and he will write you a prescription. Trust me i know its not fun and the farther you get the worse it is because now when i puke i get the worst stomach craps like I'm dieing... Maybe try to not wait till 9 to eat, eat right after you get up.
