Intense fear of vomiting.

Having suffered with emetophobia for as long as I can remember and tragically having made the decision to terminate a pregnancy as a result of it, I am now ttc - but am absolutely teriffied. I can't bear the prospect of this phobia retaining its stranglehold on my life, but am so very scared of being unable to cope with ms, vomiting during labour and of course, failing to provide the love and care that my child would need and deserve when unwell. I have endeavoured to beat this thing for all of my adult life and have tried numerous methods/approaches with/without the help of the NHS. How do other emetophobes manage pregnancy/labour and to look after their children when they are sick?
