I woke up with a nasty stomach bug! I’m currently 19 weeks pregnant with my daughter. I have already tried tea with honey, some vitamin c, some club crackers, some chicken noodle soup, some water, and some ginger ale. Anybody else know any natural remedies I can take since I can’t take cold and flu medicine.

Stick to a BRAT diet. Bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. Broth. Fluids fluids fluids.

Just have to ride it out. Try some dry toast and clear liquids, like juice, water, jello but do only sips.
My Dr told me to use unisom for nausea and it’s been helping me a lot. It would be worth a try atleast
I’m not a doctor but I was allowed plain musinex by my doctor. Not the dm kind. It helped when I had the sniffles. Nothing worked for my nausea so if that’s what you’re facing try to drink plain broth and crackers and lots of water until it passes I’m sorry you’re feeling ill:( ask your obgyn if there are medicines you can take. Mine gave me a list!
If you are throwing up or on the toilet a lot watch your weight…if you are dropping lbs get to emergency for fluids please…
A person who is not pregnant drops 10 lbs is in danger…I wouldn’t go that much being pregnant
My ob told me I could have robitision and plain musinex. And I had a cough that turned into bronchitis
Avoid honey it’s bad due to salmonella in it… but see a doctor because you can go into preterm labor if you get dehydrated
Ginger Gravol. All nautral.
Pedialyte to help stay hydrated. Cut it with water
You shouldnt take cold medicine for a stomach virus anyway since its not a cold. Water or pedialyte. Dont eat if you’re not ready- just stay hydrated. When ready, bland foods slowly. You can take tynonol if you have a headache or body ache. Feel better- sucks so bad having that pregnant. i had it twice with my last pregnancy.
