I feel so sick as it is im pregnant and now with a stomach flu. What can i do to feel better I feel just light headed and stomach if upset with chills what should i do?? What can I take since I m pregnant??
Answer:
The best thing you can do is to drink a lot of water and rest a lot. Your body needs the strength to fight off the virus (hence the rest) and wash it out of your system (hence the water). There is nothing you need to take.
There is not much you can do for the stomach flu except to drink lots of liquids and get lots of rest. You need to just let it run it's course.
Don't take anything. Drink gatorade, cause you need electrolytes and sugar, eat some saltine crakers. This will have something in your stomach. If it is a stomach flu it should be gone in 24 hours. If not you might have food poisining, you might need to see a doctor.
Go to the website www.shaklee.net/rksmithenterpr... There is a product there called Stomach Soothing Complex. My Doctor recommended it when I was pregnant. It is totally safe and contains only natural ingredients. You can order online. It helps soothe the nausea. You might also want to try the Optiflora - it's a two part system that you take at night that helps with any digestive, stomach problems. Great for acid reflux too. Let me know how you make out
eat a lot of plain yogurt
You may possibly have viral gastroenteritis. Drinking adequate water each day doesn't "wash the virus" out of your system. (LOL!) It replaces fluids lost to diarrhea. Besides, most viruses are self-limiting -- they run their course while you treat the symptoms.You can look into the Shaklee product, Stomach Soothing Complex, that was mentioned and run it past your OB/Gyn. Get the ingredients so you can tell your doctor. Otherwise, take your OB/Gyn's advice and no one else's.
