Hello ladies
I'm currently 4wks pregnant with number 2, and I'm starting to get a bit worried.
With my DD, I had hyperemesis, I was admitted to hospital and put on a drip, I was dehydrated and malnourished. I spent weeks constantly vomiting, up to 10 times a day and lost so much weight. It really was the most horrific thing I've ever experienced in my life! I don't think I would have the strength to go through it again with a 1yr old to look after.
I was reading that taking vit b6 can help with morning sickness, and also milk thistle. But I bought milk thistle and it says on the label that its not suitable for preggo's! So I've been taking vit b6 since Friday in the hopes that it will at least ease the sickness.
I'm trying to eat little and often, and keeping myself well hydrated, but I did all this before tbh and it didn't make a blind bit of difference.
So I was wondering if any of you lovely girlies had any ideas of what else I could do as a preventative measure. I'd rather try to prevent it from coming, or getting as bad, than try to tackle it after it's arrived. I just really want to try to avoid getting hyperemesis at all!
