My stomach has been loose since morning and I am worried about dehydration. I am pregnant and dont want to take random medicines ghar pe. When did you call the doctor for this?
Diarrhoea in pregnancy? Ugh, not fun. First, stay super hydrated with ORS or coconut water, don't just drink plain water. Eat bland foods like rice, toast, bananas. If it doesn't settle in a day or two, or if you feel dizzy/weak, call your gynac immediately. No time for risks when pregnant.
Listen, during pregnancy, anything like diarrhoea needs to be taken seriously. Your gynac is the best person to advise you. Dehydration can be risky, so it's not something to just try home remedies for without consulting them. Please call your doctor right away.
I had a bout of diarrhoea myself around my second trimester, it was so uncomfortable! My doc told me to drink lots of ORS and eat khichdi and dahi. Avoid spicy or oily food completely. It went away in a day or two, but seriously, if it continues or you get fever, see your doctor immediately, that's what I was told.
During my pregnancy, I had thyroid issues so I was always very careful with any symptom. For diarrhoea, you must tell your doctor, especially since it can lead to dehydration. They might suggest something safe to take or check if there's any underlying reason. Don't self-medicate, please.
Oh no, diarrhoea sounds scary during pregnancy! I'm in my second trimester too and constantly worrying about everything. Did anyone else experience this? What did you do? I would be so worried about dehydration. I think I'd call my doctor even for a mild case, just to be safe.
Arre yaar, loose motions in pregnancy are the worst! Happened to me once. My gynac strictly said no experimenting. Just ORS, daal-chawal, dahi-rice. Stay away from outside food and actually, if it doesn't stop in a day or you feel weak, toh immediately call the doc. Dehydration isn't good for u.
