upset stomach

[Hotpotpie]

Just that really, 10 weeks 2 days pregnant, so far been really constipated and for 7 days I've had a really heavy cold, my dietary intake has been non existent and just as I've started eating small amounts I've gotten crippling stomach pains and an explosive upset stomach. Can't make my mind up wether it's the cold, pregnancy or something else entirely?! Any thoughts on what might help? I feel like the poor baby is getting no nutrition at the moment

The baby will get nutrition - your body prioritises it over you. Maybe throw in some vitamin tabs to be sure. If you start vomiting, fever or are still poorly Monday see your GP I would say, but I do remember being very constipated at your stage, then having a big meal one night and getting the symptoms you describe. As I wasn't sick and it was just one evening I figured my digestive system was just trying to 'right' itself.

Constipation can cause diarrhoea weirdly - something gross to do with liquid poo forcing its way around!!!

Thanks, I did think about overflow but I've had three fairly violent episodes of diarrhea now so can't be much left (sorry way too much info) so long as the baby is getting what it needs I'm happy, just wish I could find something to eat that helps the pain just before I go is excruciating
