Should I call dr?

Yesterday I had a great appt...everything looked good, HB was normal, but I have only gained two pounds so far. The dr said she wasn't concerned as long as I felt like I was eating well and not having trouble with diarrhea or vomiting. I'm eating very well and haven't had any problems...until yesterday.

A friend and I ate at Chik Fil A for lunch and I got a chicken wrap. I've eaten it before with no trouble. But yesterday within an hour it had given me diarrhea. At the time, I didn't know that is what caused it. But today I ate the leftover half of the chicken wrap, and wouldn't you know it, diarrhea!

Do you think I should call the dr? I was down a pound this morning (probably due to this). Or should I wait a couple days and see what happens?

I think I'd wait, but if you're nervous then call. It can never hurt to call and talk to someone. I'd bet that whatever it was, it will be out of your system in 24 hours anyway. But, like I said, if you're nervous or if it will make you feel better, then call.

I would wait too unless I was completely paranoid. I think diarhhea in a constant state as I have had before during pregnancy (sorry TMI) or profuse vomiting would be reason to call but something that will alleviate itself after its out of your system I wouldnt.

Whatever was wrong w that wrap - sounds like your body got rid off it. If you feel fine and have no fever, it's probably ok.
Rule of thumb though: You're pregnant and with that totally entitled to bug your Doc as often as you need to.

Thanks ladies...I'm feeling 100% better so I'm glad I didn't call the dr. I was just sort of worried about the problems that could be caused by food poisoning or e. coli. If I had been exposed to something bad I wanted to make sure everything was ok.

But it seems that everything is okay. The baby is kicking away tonight! It's like big sister went to bed and now it's time to play. S/he's never been this active before!!!
