Pregnant and Sick - Washington,MO

Im am about six weeks pregnant and have not had any sort of pregnancy symptoms/sickeness. Last night I started having stomach and back pain along with the chills and hot flashes. Could I be gettting a stomach bug or are the chills and hot flashes normal in pregnancy? With my first two children all I had was hot flashes along with nausea. My first doctor visit isn't for another three weeks. No fever or cough. I did just get over a cold.

What can I do next?

I too am about 6 weeks with our 3rd and have been have hot flashes/chills and morning sickness at night. I also starting having a back ache in the last couple days- I did not have any of these symptoms with the 1st 2- every pregnancy is different

Hope this helps and take care :)

With my last pregnant I had hot and cold flashes terribly. I could not decide what to wear and changed my clothes all day long. Have you taken your temperature? If you don't have a fever and your not coughing, then I wouldn't worry.

You should probably go to the emergency room. Are you throwing up because that could throw your electrolyte balance way off and cause problems. If you had the flu you would want to see a Doc right away so that they can treat you.

that sounds like the onset of the flu. I never got chills with pregnancy, but i got very sick and had hot flashes. I would at least call your doctor.
