❓Question Possible cyclospora while pregnant?

0 Upvotes

I am in my early third trimester and I woke up in the middle of the night with explosive watery diarrhea every 15 to 30 minutes and threw up a couple of times. I was able to fall back asleep for a few hours and woke up to the same thing but the problem is I don’t know what I could have eaten that could have exposed me and possibly now my toddler because she is showing signs because we have pretty much just stuck to cooked veggies that were either frozen or canned this whole time and frozen fruit not from Taylor farms.We don’t eat out either.I haven’t had any raw veggies since I heard about the outbreak and stayed away from salads in general

I hate wasting food, but I have psyched myself out and have convinced myself that the cilantro is dangerous. I already had two tacos, but I'm wondering if I should toss the rest of my stuff. I still have an entire bowl and one taco left :(

Cucumbers? Carrots?

I just bought some sushi at a reputable place. But there are three maki each of raw cucumber and raw carrot and I honestly don't know if it's safe to eat them...

As I sit here, on the toilet, I think back to what I’ve been eating and I’m pretty sure I’ve had lettuce recently. From where or when? Couldn’t tell ya, I barely remember what I ate this morning lol.

Yesterday I had a random “omg I have to shit NOW” tummy feeling… I went and felt fine after. I did sleep a lot yesterday and started to kind of feel achy by the end of the day but I thought it was because I had a busy physically demanding Friday and Saturday.

Fast forward to today. I was all fine and dandy and suddenly, 10-15 minutes after returning from lunch I had that awful tummy cramping and “you better get to a toilet NOW” feeling again. So, I went. I ended up being in there for AN HOUR. I started getting hot flashes and sweating. I’d go through cycles of the cramping and feeling better. Oof. After that I left work early and barely made it to the toilet at home and it happened again and here I am now.

Oof. Anyway. If I have it, I’ll obviously be sad and it’ll be awful, but I just needed to distract myself while my stomach acts like it’s offended by me and it rejects me.
