Help! Stomach bug and pregnant, and other questions
I'm feeling ill today, could be something I ate or a virus. Can I take anything? I am having some belly pain and chills 
Since winter is coming , I would like to avoid getting colds and such. Are we allowed to take supplements to boost immunity?
Asking here because if I call my doc , the answer will be no, no, no to everything

Pregnant or not there really isn't much you can take for a stomach virus or food poisoning unfortunately.
It just has to run it's course as miserable as it is.
As far as immune boosters during pregnancy, I am really not too sure what is safe to be honest

Help! Stomach bug and pregnant, and other questions
I had a stomach bug with both pregnancies. The first wasn't as bad and it passed after about 8-10 hours. The second was so bad. I was running to the bathroom every 10-20 minutes. I ended up at L&D for IV fluids. They also gave me zofran via IV. It was awful.
As for colds. I took elderberry syrup if I felt cold symptoms coming.

Check with your doctor about activated charcoal tablets.
