A member asked:

Ate thoroughly cooked ribs tonight but had a bout of diarrhea a few hours later. should i be worried about food poisoning? i am 22 weeks pregnant.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: If there was only one bout of loose stools, that is more likely to be due to the spices and chemicals used in cooking and not food poisoning due to infection. Drink enough water so that your urine is mostly colorless. If the diarrhea lasts more than a day, see a doctor. One episode of loose stools will not affect your baby. Wish you good health and a healthy baby.
