Q: Food poisoning while pregnant?

Hi there, its me again, not having a good run of it lately! :) Had bad food poisoning last night, i think it was the eggs i had for dinner, one of them looked a little soft when i cracked into the pan but i thought it would be fine. Anyway a few hours later, what i thought was heartburn and indigestion and nausea turned into severe stomach pains and dry retching. The pains were so bad! Eventually this got worse, and without tmi lets just say i was sitting on the toilet while projectile vomiting into the sink. I dont think i have ever had vomiting/diahorrea so bad! Anyway after a few episodes of that i was eventually able to get to bed and sleep. I feel okaay this morning, just weak and my stomach is still a bit delicate. Do you guys think i should be worried about my baby? I am 15+5 weeks now. The stomach pains were just so bad i am worried my baby could be affected too. I am honestly freaking too now about labour, because i dont know how i can handle pains worse than last night!!!
