I have never felt this way in my life, any headache , food poisoning or bruise does not even come close to how bad this nausea is I genuinely think I would rather get hit by a car than another second of this I go through the same cycle over and over again begging to not feel nauseous and trying to manage to eat something I'm pretty sure I'm dehydrated because what I do manage to drink I'm usually throwing up not long after , everything that people recommend I've tried from eating a cracker before getting out of bed to having smaller amounts of food less often and christ knows how much ginger I've had ginger tea , ginger sweets , ginger biscuits even raw ginger , I take my hat off to everyone who has been through this and been able to cope I cannot cope I honestly considered killing myself I feel weak and dizzy all the time , it brings me to tears how bad it gets I feel pain in my ribs from dry heaving so much , I dont know how people do this multiple times I used to think I have a high pain tolerance but this is just something I can't deal with , it's got to the point where i only try to eat foods i know will be easy to throw up so that I dont choke on my own vomit again, I worry that my prenatal vitamins arent being absorbed because of it all. Can someone please help.

You need to go to the gp ASAP

I was the same as you and ended up in hospital on an IV. Get yourself to the GP ASAP and ask for anti-emetics. They'll probably start you off on cyclazine but if that doesn't work there are others available. Be persistent until you find something that works for you. Most have been used for a very long time in pregnant women so are considered safe.

You need some help, it sounds like Hyperemesis. Or at the best, severe pregnancy sickness. It’s not normal. Sickness is normal yes but not to the point of not eating or drinking, keeping anything down & feeling really unwell. You sound dehydrated which needs treating.

I have Hyperemesis & I could have written your post. This is my second HG pregnancy & in both pregnancies I’ve spent multiple times in hospital for severe dehydration & IV anti-sickness. And I’m spending my second pregnancy on a combination of anti-sickness tablets that I’ll most likely be on until birth. Baby is doing well & things are a lot better at 22 weeks!

You need medical help - please call your midwife and ask where to go for help. Your local hospital may have an EPU you can go too. Alternatively, go to A&E and they’ll get you some help from there. If you think you can ride it out until tomorrow, get to your GP ASAP tomorrow. They’ll get you some help I promise!

Oh gosh the constant nausea. It was horrendous. I really feel for you.
Please ring 111 and get yourself to a doctor. I mainly had nausea but really couldn't eat anything and by the time I saw the GP I was dehydrated. If nausea is the main problem (rather than vomiting) make sure you say that as there are different meds.
