The simple answer isn't always the most obvious, but it's often the one that ends up being correct.

Bad chinese food

 

Not even possible,no kitties in Apocalypse.

 

It's really just the baby having a hissy fit in the womb over his mother getting that hideous haircut.

 

Its rectoretinitis.

 

It must be related to the 'beatings' that she received while in the 'kill floor' house. In the shower scene, there are at least 2 bruises on her lower back. A 'miscarriage' is going to happen. I don't think they can have 2 babies in the same show.

 

Everything you've said here is correct. Hopefully they'll come up with something that is actually medically plausible--like appendicitis or a kidney infection/stone and not just blame it on the pregnancy.

 

She could of had a miscarriage and perhaps now has an infection, not all pregnancies are the same, but could be something else unrelated. Just because the pregnancy is early in weeks doesn't mean the person may not have problems with it.

 

There was very few medically plausible facts attached to that diabetic chick we saw earlier this season. I don't think the writers go out of their way to make medical facts 100% accurate on this show. I assumed Maggie was having a miscarriage in the last episode but that was just a guess on my part.

 

The more important question is how Negan knew she was sick and would need to go to Hilltop. WTF?

 

Yea that's what I'd like to know...

 

Not that this show has a great medical track record, but that not how miscarriages show. She would be spotting blood, or full on bleeding. It not an eptopic pregnancy, her scan showed uterine implantation. Its way too early for implications like eclampsia.

She looks like she has some kind of infection (the fever, the sweating, the pallor), either viral or bacterial.

 

Not all miscarriages, she could of had a missed miscarriage. That's when the fetus has died but didn't expel out, it happens more often in the early weeks of pregnancies and if the fetal tissue isn't removed it can cause infection or cause the person to bleed out when it finally does expel out.

 

But Glenn is Korean.

 

She has IPS - Inconvenient Pregnancy Syndrome. Symptoms include: remaining skinny and feeling perfectly fine despite significant beating and general emotional stress, followed be sudden and intense random stomach pains, fever, and unconsciousness at the most unfortunate time humanly possible.

But seriously, I actually asked the same thing to the only person I was watching the episode with who had had kids. The explanation about her miscarrying due to the earlier encounter with the Saviors makes sense. Her going out on that mission was the worst decision she's ever made.

 

I wonder if it's gallbladder. I don't know how she can stand wear those tight jeans in so much pain.

 

Blighted ovum is possible, but infection is rare. I still think the series isnt to be trusted to account for genuine medical occurances , but it seems like genuine sickness rather than pg related. But...drama...so....

 

I'd guess that they were waiting and watching for them to make any kind of a group move outside of the ASZ. It just so happened that events transpired to have them take the RV with such a large group. Good luck for Negan.

Also, a convenient plot device.

 

See this is the whole thing that gets me. Maggies health issue and Daryl needing medical help and maybe even a blood transfusion would've been cliffhanger enough..

 

They didn't, I think the idea the writers were going for is that the Saviors were waiting for Rick and Co. to go out looking for Daryl/Glenn/Michonne/Rosita since they were all on a run and hadn't returned over a lengthy amount of time. Just a coincidence that they ended up needing to go to the Hilltop, same outcome different reason
