Hyperemesis Gravidarum

Whitney

So very tired of throwing up all day every day. I've had like 3 non vomit days since becoming pregnant back in April. Here I am in August counting the days until Baby Tasker gets here (156) I hear the relief is instantaneous when baby arrives and I cannot wait.

I feel so alone in this, not just because I am a single mother but because no one I know is going through this. I cry all the time, could be hormones but it's mostly because I'm alone in this. No one fully understands. I put on a happy brave face but I feel like shit most days. I've basically been living in bed with a bucket for months. It's not going to end, I don't feel better. No crackers don't help. Ginger makes me vomit. And don't tell me it's a sign of a healthy pregnancy...no hyperemesis is something much worse than "normal" morning sickness. I had "normal" morning sickness with Chris...this...this is knocking on deaths doorstep and hoping the pain and suffering ends soon. It's also telling yourself that the baby will arrive and make all of this worth it.

For me it's crying late at night because you can't sleep because you body rejects everything you put in it. No one will fully understand the pain I'm going through. I miss playing with the boys, I miss being their mother. I hate that I am sick all the time. I know it won't last forever but I'm ready to have my life back.

Anyone else have HG?
