Narrative:
While de-icing at the gate F/a (flight attendant) C and B sitting in their aft jumpseats. Received an excessive amount of fumes which forced them to cover their faces and forced C flight attendant into the lav where she began to dry heave. It wasn't until after the first service in the main cabin did both F/a's start feeling symptoms. Captain was contacted and medlink was notified. A doctor on board was requested. I asked that C flight attendant sit in a different jumpseat so as to be closer to the doctor seating in fc and for the paramedics to meet her as soon as the door opened.
