Getting over stomach virus
Permalink Closed


Okay, I've been sick all weekend with an awful stomach virus. Yesterday, I was able to eat toast and drink some ginger ale.  This morning, I feel a little better and the only thing I'm hungry for is spaghetti!! Would it be bad to eat that or should I just eat what I'm hungry for since all I've had in the past 48 hours is toast??

I would stick with soup for another day before eating solids.  Spagetti would be a Friday dinner idea for me since red sauce burns when it comes up. Hopefully you aren't puking right now but even if you aren't I'd be on the safe side and avoid it for a few days.

yeah trust me, you do NOT want to be puking up spaghetti. Hold off a few more days.


 


Hope you feel better!

Eh, I'd eat it anyways. Just go slow and stop if it doesn't seem to be agreeing with you.

when you have a stomach virus, you should be on the B-R-A-T diet.


B-bananas


R-rice


A-applesauce


T-Toast.


as well as clear liquids.  since pasta is similiar to rice and toast, you can have it, but you can't have butter or sauce on it.  (butter is a fat, which you need to stay away from and sauce is tomatoes which is acidic which you also must stay away from). 


you need energy, so if pasta is all you want, you should have it (plain).  it's more important to eat.  i hope that helps.

Thanks, girls. I think I'll just have some plain pasta. I did have some toast yesterday and I was fine with that, so hopefully pasta will be alright.

I was just going to suggest plain pasta, perhaps with a tiny pat of butter if it's too dry. Hope you feel better; stomach viruses suck!

So!  It's a stomach virus, not a baby.  Is that right? 


No advice, but I hope you are feeling better soon.
