Hiya hunny so with throwing up, diarrhoea and not being able to keep water down you are going to be severely dehydrated .
I had this issue when I was pregnant.
You will need to go to hospital where they will hydrate you with a drip and give you some ant sickness tablets.
At this gestation you need your energy in case you go into labour .
Message me separately if you want to ❤️

for peace of mind i’d give your hospital’s maternity assessment unit a call- they’re likely to want you to go in. like belle mentioned above they’ll want to give you iv fluids and they’ll probably want to monitor baby as well if you’ve been struggling to keep anything down. given that you’re so close to your due date they might potentially speak to you about induction. did you have hyperemisis/sickness throughout your pregnancy? or has this sort of come out of the blue? x

They tend to say it’s your body cleaning itself out getting ready for you to give birth. But if you can’t keep anything down then ring triage as they’ll want to see you and possibly hydrate you with a drip, give anti sickness medication and monitor baby as well. Take your hospital bag with you just incase x
