Diarrhoea - help!

Im only 5 weeks but for the past 3 days have had awful diarrhoea.
I also have nausea so am just eating what I can; mainly breadsticks and other bland foods.

Does anyone know if diarrhoea is a normal symptom and if so, how long does it last?!
And does anyone have any tips to stop it? Im having sips of water when I can but am concerned I am getting dehydrated.
Im seeing midwife next week, but wondered if anyone had any tips now?

Thanks in advance.

I think diarrhoea is normal think it's hormones it can go one way or other diarrhoea or constipation lol the joys x

I had some diarrhoea at that point but if it's really bad and not intermittent then I think you should see the GP. You do need to stay hydrated if nothing else.
