Bear with me while I offload my symptoms APologies for TMI - don't read while eating!

I am 27 weeks pregnant.
On Wednesday I started feeling sick, and lunchtime I was sick. Have spent Wednesday/Thursday/Friday feeling sick (on and off), tired and worn out. Was sick again on Friday night. Spent yesterday afternoon with a bad stomach but not feeling sick. Had diarrhoea this morning and noticed pale stools a couple of hours ago (not diarrhoea). Since I started feeling ill, my urine has been incredibly dark which I put down to not drinking enough, but it's darker than the usual throwing up dehydration I think.

I googled, and this is what came up. Except I haven't had any itching at all. It also sounds as though even if I do have it, it's not really anything to worry about (that was from the NHS website). I'm going to make a
GP appointment for this week but just wanted to see what MN-ers thought, and whether I should be dealing with this more urgently?

Thanks! It's a relief.
Mine was definitely orange (in fact at first I panicked it was blood!) but stools were pale rather than white so doesn't sound as though it's the same thing. Anyway, seems back to normal now so I think it was nothing.
How far along are you?

I'm 10 weeks pg.

I've been given an 80 percent chance to get OC again. But then again, there is still 20% left, huh? .

oooh just seen this
Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy - really hope you don't get it again, and if you do it's caught and managed early
