I don't know about the diorhea but the blurry vision is pretty normal but you should probally get your iron levels checked just incase you are low that can cause blurry vision.

If your low in iron than it can cause the dizzyness and spotty vision.

Just ask the doctor tommorow
Im sure ur fine:) :hugs:

thank you girls i know it sounds silly as i have been pregnant before so i should know this stuff but it all feels so new:confused:

i did have chineese for lunch today at a resturaunt ( a reputable one) do u think that could be the cause of the diahrea??

Your bowels can do strange things during pg - I understand both constipation and diarhea are common.

Diarrhoea can be caused by many things - so it really is best to ask the GP about it, just in case. In all likelihood you've picked up a stomach bug, or maybe had a bit of irritability in your bowel from the fat content of the chinese..

Just make sure you keep yourself well hydrated. Drinking something like hydrolyte is best, but water is fine too.

Hope you feel better soon.

Nope, not harmful to the baby - the placenta will protect the bub from harmful toxins like that...gastro/food poisoning are VERY unpleasant for you of course, but bubs is well protected :)

Just make sure you keep up your fluids, like I said :)

Sounds like you have some postural hypo tension. Probably normal. I would go with the advice regarding fluids, make sure you remain well hydrated

I don't know how pregnant you are but maybe a haemoglobin ( iron level) and iron studies may give a clearer picture.
