Hyperemesis gravidarum

I'm 11 weeks pregnant and so far I've lost more than 4kg. Anti nausea medicine doesn't help control the nausea or vomitting, I'll still vomit after, even after eating the strongest medicine Diclectin. I've also tried non medicinal methods such as ginger tea or the anti nausea sea band, but it doesn't work. I was sent to A&E for suspected hypermedia gravidarum and was kept there for 10 hours to do IV drip. Right after I left the hospital, I vomited 😂 From that day on, I made it a point to eat very small bites, like 2/3 small mouth of biscuit/rice with 10 min interval then drinking 2/3 sips of water in between. Each mealtime lasts me an average of 2 hours and by then I'm still hungry but at least I get food in my stomach. These are considered good days, because on most days I don't get to retain the food and I'll vomit out what I have eaten, in the recent weeks it has morphed from throwing up every meal to throwing up dinner. So for these few weeks, dinner on most days ends up to be a potato or egg. And when i want to sleep to not feel nausea, i cannot, because am too hungry, which will trigger nausea and vomitting 🫠 I've broken down so many times before but what's worse is that if I cry, it will trigger vomit so I cannot keep crying 🫠 i also feel very miserable because no one else seems to understand what I'm going through. My mum and mother in law tells me to just eat something but they don't understand that putting the wrong food in will induce vomitting also. People I spoke to don't seem to experience what I went through, making it seem like I'm the odd one out. So yes, you're not alone, hang in there, it's really not easy and I understand.

Hang in there. I’m currently 10 weeks 2 days and have been suffering from MS since week 6. Gynae told me I can up my diclectin dose to 2 at night, 1 in the noon and 1 in the evening. You can try maybe that will help. Apart from that I heard that ginger tea helps too. I also feel shitty everyday and I feel so bad as I’m supposed to be grateful for being pregnant but I can’t help but feel like I no longer own my body. I don’t feel myself at all. I guess only time will help. Let’s do this!!!

Same. I was admitted hospital countless times due to dehydration and 1 time is due to unknowingly gotten influenza. Was vomiting non stop as I was also on tamiflu for influenza. I was just discharged from hospital but I am very vexed too as I am constantly worried I will end up in hospital for IV drips again…. My urine shows very dehydrated.
