I had a stomach bug a couple of weeks ago and ended up in hospital due to dehydration. I asked the doctor whether stomach bugs can cause issues for the baby but he said that baby would be fine. I got to hear the heartbeat for the first time today so I know that he/she is ok.
What you've got to do is make sure you don't get dehydrated. Are you able to keep fluids down? I think rehydration treatments such as diarolyte are safe in pregnancy. It might be worth getting checked out as a precaution. I wasn't going to bother but my OH persuaded me too and they found lots of ketones in my urine which meant that I had to be admitted. Hope you feel better soon.
