The journey of my 3rd pregnancy with HG in 2010.
About Me
- Janet
- Historic Vermont Village, New England, United States
- My husband and I were married July 2004. Our first child, a daughter was born April 2005 and our second, a son, arrived December 2006. Then our second son was born in October 2010. All pregnancies I suffered from HG, with it being worse with my second one. My 3rd pregnancy was by far the the best out of the 3 and that is because of the Diclectin.
"It's not morning sickness....... it's much worse."

What is Hyperemesis Gravidarum?
"Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a rare condition characterized by persistent and severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy. It is debilitating and causes weight loss, dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, electrolyte imbalance, pH imbalance (metabolic acidosis), and possibly liver damage. Hyperemesis gravidarum may be related to the high hormonal levels in the blood from pregnancy, although the exact cause is not known."

HG started at 5 weeks 2 days, and I "only" threw up about 35 times this pregnancy. The "easiest" pregnancy out of the 3, since I was throwing up about 6x a day with the 1st and up to 12x a day with the 2nd.

I hope you can keep comfortable! I remember the heat when I was pregnant with Lydia and was SO uncomfortable. This time around hasn't been so bad for me, I'm rather enjoying it....but I can certainly sympathize.
Thanks Anna. I actually took the kids and we went into the pool! The 70 degree water cooled all of us off in no time. I am thankfull to have the pool this summer and will look forward to the day when Penn puts in the a/c.
Hey, it's going to be a hot week and if you and Lydia want to come for a swim PLEASE come!!!
Hi just thought I would say thanks for keeping an open blog while having HG. I found this while stuck in bed with baby #3. I have had HG with all my babys. My HG has also been easing up here in week 13 (a big change for my pregnacys) so reading that yours is almost gone is uplifting. Thanks.
