Chiara was small compared to my other babies but I think that is more due to the cord being short and wrapped around her neck so it was a bit compressed than the hyperemesis.]]> Sun, 03 Aug 2008 18:02:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=458278&title=hyperemisis#458278 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : My wee girl was fairly little....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=458182&title=hyperemisis#458182 Author: butefulbaby

My wee girl was fairly little. She was 5 lb 12 oz. The other babies in our anti ntal group were all 9 nd 10 pounders so she really looked tiny next to them. I loved having such a little baby. It just made her more precious.
Oh dear she's just started screaming....best go and rescue!!!]]> Sun, 03 Aug 2008 15:47:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=458182&title=hyperemisis#458182 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : lol i ended up being induced with...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=458168&title=hyperemisis#458168 Author: Candkids

theres 4 1/2 years between S & J, one thing that got me really panicky with my last pregnancy tho was with S i had soooooo many scans as they were worried about her growth due to me being so sick. but with J i only had the usual 2 so i was always worried if he was growing lol!

i remember being really jealous of all those "golwing mums to be!"

i felt really good 1 morning so decided i would attempt breakfast - weetbix never ever again have i eaten weetbix.]]> Sun, 03 Aug 2008 08:58:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=457896&title=hyperemisis#457896 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : I used to eat apples when I was...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=457794&title=hyperemisis#457794 Author: Maya

I used to eat apples when I was preg with the gremlins, I'd sleep all day then have an apple on the way to pick up Maya from preschool so I didn't get too sick on the way from not eating. The cruelest thing about hyperemesis is that you have to eat to make yourself feel better but then you throw it all up

Butefulbaby - there's 3 1/2 years between Maya and the gremlins and 20 mths between the gremlins and Chiara. Don't count yourself out just yet, a couple of years to recover and you might be strong enough to face it again and it really is worth it!]]> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 22:04:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=457794&title=hyperemisis#457794 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : Gosh, memories really are flooding...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=457766&title=hyperemisis#457766 Author: butefulbaby

Gosh, memories really are flooding back. I had forgotten how bad it was. I had a man tell me the other day that he couldn't imagine feeling sea sick for 8 months or so. The thing is, it was so much worse than sea sickness. More like alcohol poisoning and then times it by ten.
The one thing I managed to eat was pacific rose apples. They were nice and juicy and seeing as I couldn't drink, they were good. One day I ran out and made hubby go to buy some more and he came home with the wrong apples. I burst into tears and he had to go get pacific rose. I just could not eat/drink anything else. I don't normally eat apples. I went through a pineapple stange too. Oh how foul it was. I have made a decision today. Hubby is right. Specialist is right. No more babies. My girl was worth every bit the battle but she will just have to be spoilt. She has a half brother and sister so at least she won't miss out on having siblings. How long between your children? Do you think I'll forget and change my mind eventually? ]]> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 21:44:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=457766&title=hyperemisis#457766 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : thats why i only had tea it made...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=457752&title=hyperemisis#457752 Author: WRXnKids

LOL I'm the same, every time DH rolls over I jab him and whinge until he faces back the other way. And he's not allowed to wear deoderant or drink alcohol, it makes me so sick.

Heck, I can't believe you guys have gone back for seconds...and thirds!!!!

I so want more babies!!! Hubby says NO. I think he found my pregnancy as hard as I did!

I really can't imagine having a 6 month old baby and being so sick.

I have never been soooo skinny as when I was pregnant....and now I've gotten fat!! Damn it. Was hoping to stay at least a bit skinny for a bit but didn't work like that.

Just reading all the things that you guys were put off...mine is toilet duck....ha ha! Well I spent most of the time with my head down the toilet I guess.

There is hope.
I was hospitalized twice with number 1, it was horrible, vomiting upwards of 20 times a day and losing 15kg.
The IV drugs were great but as soon as i went home it started again.
Did anyone find it worse when you were at home? I would be out, feeling ok but have to rush to the toilet or closest bush as soon as i pulled in the driveway.
I still cant smell Glade lavender without feeling sick! and perfume was just horrible. A mall assistant actually sprayed me with perfume on my way into Farmers. I was so upset and nauseous I had to go home and shower!
i was terrified of getting pregnant again becuase of the sickness and i think i have an actual phobia of vomiting now, but oops, there came a number 2 baby... thankfully i was only sick a handful of times, still quite nauseous and i still dont want to get pregnant again but at least it wasnt as bad as the first time.
My best tip:
Have a bottle of lemon essence on you! it relaxes your stomach and diverts your senses to a better smell.
Why is it that your sense on smell increases when you just want it to turn off!

DH couldn't even wear deoderant with my first pregnancy! This time around I have hyperemesis again but it's being partially controlled by a load of drugs, so only throwing up a few times a day now, and haven't had to go to hospital this time yet. So fingers crossed it's not going to get as bad as last time. It's pretty hard to cope with a 6 month old baby.

It lasted until 3 weeks before Chloe was due, last time. Can't tell you about this time, yet but I'm hoping the magic 12 weeks will actually BE magic this time ]]> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 09:55:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=456905&title=hyperemisis#456905 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : Yep, with all three pregnancies...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=456770&title=hyperemisis#456770 Author: Maya

I wasn't as bad as you ladies, hospitalised at 11.5 weeks and IV fluids from Saturday 2pm until about 8pm on the Monday night, and had lost enough weight for me to be concerned - they ended up running the bags thru faster because they weren't happy with the output even after a couple of bags. I also ended up back on an IV line at 32.5 weeks when I started throwing up again - partially due to the flu, but I couldn't keep anything down.

I eventually stopped throwing up about 19/20 weeks, so was guttered to start again later. It is something that weighs on my mind when talking about a potential No.2]]> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 22:25:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=456735&title=hyperemisis#456735 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : ewwww ughhh the memories are flooding...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=456734&title=hyperemisis#456734 Author: Candkids

Yep With Maya I vomited every day from 8 weeks till 16 weeks and spent the rest of the time feeling crap, with the gremlins and Chiara it started at 5 weeks and I vomited every day until the day I gave birth, I was literally throwing up in the bathroom sink as we were walking out the door for my induction both times. I also had ptyalism (excessive saliva), so bad that I was going thru a box of tissues a day just to get it all out coz swallowing it made the nausea/vomiting worse. It's stripped all the enamel from my teeth and I had chronic heartburn where the acid in the saliva burnt my oesophagus. I was induced with Chiara on mental health grounds largely brought about by me being depressed from feeling so crappy. With the gremlins my m/w and I fudged the dates to get the OB to induce me earlier coz he sooo wasn't getting how desperate I was!

Oh and I was hospitalised with hyperemesis with Maya and Chiara but not with the gremlins, with them I had daily IV fluids at the GP's to avoid being admitted to hospital. ]]> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 21:38:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=456617&title=hyperemisis#456617 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : Oh crumbs.

Oh crumbs. It really IS debilitating. Did you have it the entire pregnancy? I did and like you, couldn''t stand until about 25 weeks. I couldn't have a teaspoon of water without being sick. I couldn't even speak for a whole month because I had no energy.
My little angel was so worth it. Í had probems with my kidneys at the end so they induced me. I don't think my body could handle it again and I would need a full time care giver for both of us.
I love my little girl so much and am soooo greatful for her. Wish I could have more though, easily. My specialist recommended no more and I feel bit sad!!]]> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 20:37:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=456494&title=hyperemisis#456494 <![CDATA[Hyperemisis : Pick me, and yes, I got it every...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19717&PID=456449&title=hyperemisis#456449 Author: Maya

Pick me, and yes, I got it every time And yes it was waaay worse trying to cope with hyperemesis and a toddler (or two in my case). When I was preg with the gremlins Maya was 3 and she learnt to get herself up in the morning and help herself to crackers and fruit then turn her DVD on coz I couldn't get out of bed. Plus she was at preschool so all I had to do was get her there and then I could rest/sleep/throw up all day.

With Chiara I ended up in hospital at 7 weeks when I got so sick that I couldn't stand up without vomitting. The morning I went to hospital poor Maya had to take complete care of the gremlins who were only 13 mths at the time coz I physically could not get out of bed. Even when the worst of it passed and I was on a cocktail of antiemetics I still found them very hard to cope with, right up until I delivered Chiara in fact, feeling so revolting 24-7 is just so debilitating.

Hiya,

Just wondering...has anyone else suffered with this and needed hospitalisation? (severe vomiting and nausea during pregnancy).
If you have, have you had more children/pregancies and did you have hyperemisis again?
I'm just trying to consider whether or not to have more children as I don't think I could go through it again with a young child. Actually I wouldn't want to go through again full stop!
