Tummy Troubles Around the Holidays

Tummy Troubles “My husband was great and cooked dinner for me tonight.  Now I have diarrhea and stomach cramps and it feels terrible!  Do I have to go to the hospital?”

It is holiday season time — time for good food and family fun! Here is a frequent phone call I get during this time of year:  “My husband was great and cooked dinner for me tonight. Now I have diarrhea and stomach cramps, and I feel terrible! Do I have to go to the hospital?”

You laugh, but it happens. Your hubby, mother or mother-in-law cooks dinner, and it is OK going in but afterwards — look out! So what do you do if you have nausea, vomiting or diarrhea?

Nausea/Vomiting: If mild, you can stop eating and try ice chips. The colder the item, the easier it seems to sit on the stomach. If you hold down ice chips OK, then sip ice water. If that stays down, try a BRAT diet. BRAT stands for bananas, rice, applesauce and toast. Eat bland foods like that until you are not vomiting for at least 12 hours. Then slowly add in other foods. If nausea and vomiting continue, call your doctor for a medicine called Zofran, which can help with the nausea. If all else fails and you cannot even keep down ice chips, go to the hospital. Sometimes you just need some IV fluids to make you feel better. I always tell women that it is extremely important to know who you trust with your pregnancy, one of my friends who was pregnancy recently had a really bad experience at the hospital, she ended up contacting The Medical Negligence Experts so that they could take care of the problem.

Diarrhea: Yuck! This can come as soft and frequent or watery and nasty.  With either, you need to stay well-hydrated with water and Gatorade. A BRAT diet is a good idea until things slow down. It is also OK to take an over-the-counter anti-diarrheal medicine (like Imodium) as well.

The big concern with nausea and vomiting and diarrhea in pregnancy is dehydration, which can sometimes cause contractions.  If this is the case, rest and rehydrate.  Water and Gatorade are really good ideas.  If the contractions continue or worsen, go to the hospital. Often, IV fluids stop the contractions and make you feel better.
