I was diagnosed with HG..

I am 8 weeks and 5 days pregnant, and I started getting sick around 5 weeks so my OB gave me Diclegis and it worked for the most part until the beginning of this week. It started Monday morning when I had my fit OB appointment (all that was done was some blood work, and we talked about what to expect, etc) she weighed me and I had lost 10 pounds, and I was like oh gosh and she reassured me that it was normal... the day began to continue and it’s like the Diclegis didn’t even work for me anymore and I threw up, threw up, and threw up even when my body had nothing else to throw up. So I was scheduled to work Tuesday and was like well maybe it’s just normal morning sickness, I went to drink some water and I couldn’t even finish drinking the cup without it coming back up - so I left and went home to rest. The throwing up continued and at this point I was almost 48 hours without fluids or food in my body, so my SO said we are going to the hospital. I was given two full bags of IV fluids and at this point I had lost 5 more pounds so a total of 15 within a week... I was prescribed zofran and phenergren.

So far since Tuesday I haven’t vomited, but I do still feel nauseas from time to time. I now worry about being like this for the rest of my 9 months, and don’t feel like doing. This is my first pregnancy at 21 and ugh it’s been rough!
