Hyperemesis and miscarriage

After being signed off work for five months of my pregnancy with severe hyperemesis I started feeling better around week 18 only to realise I wasn't lucky that it was stopping sooner than last time (I was sick until my first born was born) it turned out that I was actually having a late term miscarriage.

I feel a bit baffled as I thought HG meant high hormone levels which was a good sign. I felt reassured almost by it despite how horrific it was and was shell shocked to lose my baby at that late stage. I also just feel very depressed that so many brutal months of severe illness, hospital admissions etc resulted in nothing but pain. I feel very hopeless that if I ever want to try again I'm inevitably facing a third HG pregnancy that could all end in nothing again.

Has anyone had a HG pregnancy end in miscarriage?

Yes I had the triple whammy of ivf, HG & miscarriage. I was told by many a doctor or nurse that HG meant it was a strong pregnancy, makes me so angry that they tell people this when it’s clearly complete rubbish.

This is familiar - I had a MMC last week after terrible morning sickness (HG, I subsequently realised). I had it with my 3yo son, and foolishly was pulled into a false sense of security by it this time but at 11 weeks had a private scan & the pregnancy had stopped growing a week earlier. I feel like I have PTSD from the sickness followed by miscarriage (more the sickness really, as I was so, so unwell). I'm terrified of it happening again but I really do want another child.
