I'm new to this but hopefully this is how I ask a question.
Are there any mommies out there who can help me? I've been diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum, if you don't know it's basically severe morning sickness. I haven't been able to work nor have I gained any weight, I actually weigh less than I did before getting pregnant.
Anyway my question is does anyone have any tips or magical cures (one can hope lol) for HG? Also, I'm 26 weeks.
Liquid diet...try smoothies...just keep down what you can...constantly sip...
I was taking daily/every-other-day hospital trips in the beginning but I forced myself to stop going. They kept sending me home even when my OB called & told them to give me IV fluids, they'd refuse & send me home anyway.
I was told B6 & Unisom. I took that once & a half hour later & the rest of that night I was throwing up. I've been throwing up blood for weeks now too. OB says my baby sounds & seems good though. As long as she's okay I'll be toughing it out.
I wish everyone had a magical answer when bad things happened lol
I had it so bad I had to be admitted to the hospital a couple times... I tried everything from phenergan to Zofran and Nothing helped until my doctor recommended taking unisom (tabs) with vitamin b6 every night and that finally helped... I was also told to stop taking my prenatal since that made it a lot worse. I know it's bad... I couldn't even keep water down... throwing up 20-30 times a day. I still throw up once or twice a day but it's better than 20-30.
@seeyore, :( I wish I had the magic answer I'm sorry girl!
@seeyore, ugh I totally hear you with the medicine!!! I've been 100% drug free this pregnancy except my vitamins. I hope you're getting enough food for you cause that baby girl will suck every bit of it outta you for herself lol
Peppermints helped in the beginning but now they also trigger it. ):
My morning sickness is so bad that (sorry for image) I can't even keep my own saliva down let alone sip water. ): Yes, my OB prescribed Zofran, however I didn't like the possible side affects so I waited until after most of my daughters major organs & such developed. But I only took it for a few days before it started triggering me to throw up. She then prescribed Compazine & the same thing happened. I haven't asked for anything new since because I'm worried about what it could do to my baby girl.
peppermints and preggie pops@seeyore were my only lifesavers before you get up or try to get up eat a peppermind hope that helps.
@seeyore, I had it my first 4 months and slowly faded off thank goodness it's the worth feeling ever .. have you tried eating bland foods? or has the doctor prescribed you anything?
I don't have that but when I was nauseous I got preggie pops those helped and any foods you notice set it off obviously avoid drink and eat slower and since you can't help the throwing up maybe try eating things like soups that are easier to come back up :( feel better mama! I'm sure you already knew all this though lol but I tried!!!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
I was diagnosed with hyperemesis as well. it was horrible! I couldn't work nor could I keep anything down. I lost weight at a rapid pace and I was extremely dehydrated. my ob decided to put me on a pump since I couldn't keep oral medications down and the suppositories didn't help. I had to wear the pump 24/7 for about 2-3 months but it was worth it! when j could come off of the pump I still had oral medications incase I needed them and just watched what I ate. there are several things that I have had to cut out because they would still make me sick. preggie pops didn't help me. hot tea helped a bit most of the time. ginger and peppermint help settle the stomach. they told me that water on an empty stomach is the worst thing to do because of the way it mixes with stomach acid its like a volcano.
