What should a pregnant woman eat when she has diarrhea?

Patient's question:

I am 27 years old this year. In the past few days, there has been brown discharge from my lower body. I don't know what's going on, and I suspect I might be pregnant. Please ask: What should pregnant women eat when they have diarrhea?

Doctor's answer:

Nausea and vomiting during pregnancy are generally caused by infections. The most common pathogens include Salmonella, Shigella dysentery bacteria, Campylobacter, and viruses, among others. Additionally, food poisoning or viral infections in other parts of the body may also cause nausea and vomiting in pregnant women. It is recommended to undergo relevant examinations in the gastroenterology department of a regular hospital for a clear diagnosis and symptomatic treatment. At the same time, it is necessary to perform prenatal and childbirth examinations and closely monitor the intrauterine condition of the fetus. Consume or drink at least four servings of dairy products and high-calcium foods daily to help you obtain 1200 milligrams of calcium in your daily diet.
