If you cant keep water down, I would suggest you phone your doctor and tell them whats going on. Even if you cant get in to see the doctor, they might tell you to go to the hospital because the last thing you want is to become dehydrated. That would be bad for you and the baby. I know a lot of nausea comes with pregnanct so thats not what I would be worried about but if you cant keep water down, something may be really wrong.
Also, about taking meds, Id ask in the call too, every pregnancy is different and what is safe for one might not be for another one. Im in my 7th month, and my boyfriend is the same way, so I asked my doctor for a list of meds that were safe to take. your doctor might be able to give you one too. to put your mind and your boyfriends mind at ease.
I hope this helps a bit and you get better. Good luck with your pregnancy
