Well, 4th time in ER this week for fluids. HG won. Down 10lbs in 2 weeks. With a 14 month old, and not enough help to get through this at this time. I am missing out on my son, my relationship with my husband is rocky, and he does not/cannot afford time off to help. So we are saying goodbye to our little raspberry this coming week. And hope to try again in a few years when we can save for my husband to take time off to help. And my son can understand Mommy does not feel well. I have some pretty awful emotions about this, as we want another baby very badly, but potentially 8+more months of this is robbing me of my son, and my son of me. You ladies are awesome, and I wish you all unicorn pregn

I have tried all other meds for my hyperemesis (8weeks along). And now I am to try compazine. I am nursing my son 3x a day still with what little milk the HG has left me with. Anyone know the effects on supply? Or toddler? My Dr didnt have much info...

I spend all day in bed with HG. Have not kept a bite of food down in 2 days, water in nearly 3 weeks, liquids in 2 days. No meds help. I dream about ice water, my lips are ways bloody and cracked, my stomach always empty. Lost 6lbs so far. I go in for IVs every other to every three days. My husband works 60+ hours a week, I have a 14 month old. We want another child badly, but this is getting out of hand, I can hardly stand to shower, let alone feed my child. I do not have much help at all. And I have reached the point where at 8 weeks in, I do not think I can do this. Who knows when it will get better. And I would honestly at this point not even be sad if we lost the baby. Which sounds fuck

She is well meaning. But I freaking cannot stand her. She is 11, she bugs my kid. He literally runs from her. She always has to be grabbing him, shoving toys in his face, poking him, carrying him around against his will, is so loud I get migraines. I am also 8 weeks pregnant, have hyperemesis, and I fucking hate her right now.

I have to spend the day with her tomorrow. And I seriously do not know how to approach this. Her Dad (my brother in law) won't be there to control her for a couple hours, and my MIL won't say anything cause neice will cry. She cries about everything.

I have rehearsed a little what to say, " Emma, Boden gets very overstimulated sometimes. He is a very independent t

15x I have had to run to vomit today. Zofran and IVs stopped helping. HG can burn in hell.

But, on the bright side, it gets worse before better, and with my son I was only puking 10 times a day until about 10 weeks...soooo fingers crossed, toes crossed, praying to every god out there that I can eat and drink like a human soon! 8 weeks on Wed. I am craving fried rice. And my first day I keep food down, I am so fucking wrecking some. Motivation.

I had hg, pgp, prodromal labor, two inductions 24 and 28 hours, failed epidural, spent over 6 hours at 9cm, pushed for 4 hours, all on no sleep, no food, I had to be on oxygen, and was shaking so bad and so out of it I could not even hold him alone for two hours. I was so swollen I could not walk, had a hairline fracture in my pelvis, and threw out my back. Breastfeeding was awful, I had to exclusively pump for over 10 weeks while we focused on his latch. I ended up on anti-anxiety meds, I had no help as husband had to go to work after just 1 week.

Long story short, even though my midwife swears this one will be different, I cannot shake the feeling I am doomed for another awful pregnancy/

I have hyperemesis, I am 7 weeks 3 days. Son is almost 14 months. My supply was great (oversupply), but with puking, weight loss, and not keeping down enough fluids it is dipping. He still gets two letdowns a breast, but takes both now vs one at a time. I am okay with him self weaning whenever, his solids intake has shot up. And he is drinking goat milk from a sippy cup.

My question is, he is sleeping, LIKE SHIT. He nursed 8x last night compared to his usual 2x. Is he trying to up my supply? He will drink a letdown, unlatch and go to sleep. But freaks out until he gets it. I have tried to nightwean since 10 months. Husband works rotating schedule, so I am on my own, and now being sick and

Never had one first pregnancy, even after 4 hours of pushing, and what gives me one? Zofran constipation. I will take a second degree tear to a hemerroid anyday. My god owch.

I am 6 weeks along, had hg bad with my son who is now almost 14 months. We live hours from family and help. My husband works 60 hours a week, and I pretty much have all housework, garden work, etc on me due to that. By the time I get all that done, while puking...I literally only have energy to feed/change/nurse my son. I try to play, but between bathroom trips, and nausea so bad I can hardly stand I feel I am failing him. This lasted 12 weeks until the worst was over with my son. And I am so worried me being unable to go on walks, or play outside, etc is going to ruin our bond. He is a total mamas boy, and boob boy. My milk is fine for now, but if lose more weight, or cannot stay hydrated I

We had our dating scan, midwife and us thought we would be about mid way through week 7 to 8 weeks. Nope, 6 weeks today! Breastfeeding has my cycles wonky, so I ovulated later than we thought. Sperm hung out for nearly a week waiting for the egg, crazy!

Heart rate was 106bmp. Which made us feel waaaaay better about the pregnancy. I had had 3 losses to get my son. And with all of them a heartbeat was never seen. Feeling morning sickness kick in HARD the past two days helps us feel better too :) Just hoping to avoid HG this time around. I would share a pic but it looks like a grain of rice(baby) next to marble(yolk)...haha. not much to see.

I am 6-7 weeks pregnant, supply is great for now. But my issue is the awfully sore nipples! My son (13 monts) has a good latch, but when he is tired he gets lazy, and MY GOD does it hurt! Midwife fully promotes nursing through pregnancy, and tandem nursing. And I intend to, but wowza. He nurses 4x a day, and 4× at night. I'm scared to night wean as breastfeeding is so important to us I don't want my supply to tank.

Unlatching hurts worse, cause he gets mad and bites down. So Unlatching and latching again isn't an option. Should I start latching him like a newborn again? To ensure a deep, non-toothy latch? Any advice from Mom's who have nursed through pregnancy?
