Flu Or Pregnancy Related....
Posted: 01-31-07 11:54am

Hi everyone,

so, I am now 16 weeks and 6 days pregnant. Yesterday I started feeling really gross. I have had the typical nausea etc since I got pregnant. I woke at around 3 am this morning with a terrible headache and nausea. I finally fell back asleep only to wake up still feeling aweful. No fever is present just the nausea and headache. I have been just laying around all morning and took the afternoon off. I thought maybe a nice shower would make me feel better, but I had to jump out of the shower only to totally empty my guts. This is the second time I have litterally power puked since getting pregnant. Only this time I have had an upset stomach. Should I be worried that there is something wrong or that its just possibly the flu bug? Any suggestions or thoughts would be great. Also if anyone else was ever like this while pregnant, I would love to hear from you.

Thanks girls,

mary

Mary, morning sickness can come back darling!! Lol

sounds more like a case of the flu though. Just get some rest.

Yay!!!!! You're almost 17 weeks!!! Have you gotten to hear the heartbeat yet? Have you gone for an u/s yet???

Hey girl,

we think we kind of caught the heartbeat a few weeks ago, but we were not really sure. I am going back in friday as I want to talk to the doctor about my headaches. They have been becoming very frequent and I have been having alot of issues when I get home from work everynight as I am on my feet the whole time I am at work .. I have my ultrasound on feb 22nd. Wish me luck with that!

Mary
