Yes, you should go see your OBGYN doctor. This will keep him informed of your health and he will know what to give you. Hope you feel better soon!

If you haven't had any fever then chances are very strong that you do not have the flu. Remember influenza is a respiratory virus that begins with fever and aches/pains.
Stomach flu is actually a stomach virus - not the flu.
Whatever you have, things like acetaminophen can treat the discomfort safely in pregnancy. Talk to your doctor over the phone about other over-the-counter stuff that would be safe to treat other symptoms you might be having.
Drink lots of water and gatorade if you feel like it. If you have upset stomach, teas with ginger or peppermint might be helpful.

I would go to your either your OB or your regular doctor. both of them should be able to tell you what medicicnes are safe for you to take.
