HG in pregnancy

Hi, sensitive topic for me but would love to hear some of peoples experiences with HG and subsequent pregnancies. I have a little boy who is 3 and would love more than anything to grow our family. I have been fortunate enough to fall pregnant twice since having my son. Both planned, however fell far too ill to even make it past 8 weeks. I had sickness from 6-20 weeks with my son. In hospital every 3-4 days and bed bound if I wasn’t on a drip. It was absolutely awful. I just don’t know what I can do. It feels wrong to keep falling pregnant when I know the possibility of me falling so unwell I cannot lift my head is so high. My partner runs a very stressful business and is out the door 16 hours a day. I have help but not to the extent I would need. I’m 26 so part of me is saying just wait and see, and the other part is wanting to just get it done.

I had hyperemesis with my daughter in the first and third trimesters.
For various reasons she was nearly 4 before we felt up to trying again and I had hyperemesis with two miscarriages 4 months apart which was hard! I knew I had one more pregnancy in me so we agreed to try one more time but if it wasn't meant to be a didn't have it in me to keep having hyperemesis in pregnancies that ended. I conceived a few weeks after my miscarriage in December and am now 32 weeks....with very little sickness. I was actually 7.5 weeks before I found out I was pregnant by which point I was usually bed bound. I had antiemetics as a precaution for about 3 weeks which took the nausea and vomiting to nothing and then another week at 24 weeks when I started being sick again but it passed quite quickly and didn't escalate in the same way it did with my daughter. The GPs each time have started me higher up the prescribing protocol and this time around I went straight onto xonvea. This time around i haven't been in work as I was made redundant the same day I found out I was pregnant so life has been more restful and calm than previously.
