Hyperemesis in consequent pregnancies anyone?

[madmarchhare]

I had a really rough pregnancy the first time round, and I was wondering if any 2nd (or more!) timers had the same again.

I am just writing about this - there's a good website if you don't know it which I expect you do.

I'd be interested to know too...

I think Ive read everything published!, how come youre writing about it?

I think prufock always suffered with it....

article for a baby mag. this is the site, but you'll know them.

No, she had obstetric cholestasis. Which I've just covered too

ohh i am always getting mixed up!

Shucks, I meant this lot

Ah yes, I have seen it. Only thing is, some suggest 50% chance of reoccurance, yet M/W, GP etc say not [confused emotion]. I though a good bet would be asking people that have actually been through it .

You need my keen incisive journalistic brain, clearly, Fio

all 3 of mine. sorry.

I've been told it's pretty damn likely to have again, try the second link.

Aaarrgghh!, even worse, the second one suggests 75% .

misdee, how bad were you?

i was lucky if i had one sick free day a week. i was actually hospitalised with dd3, as my ketones levels dropped too much.

dd1 was toldf by very horrible gp, that al women were sick, get on with it.

dd2 was too worried about dh to see gp, just threw up constantly.

dd3, again sick several times a day.

I could do with your brain MI, would you like to swap?

i also lost weigth with all my pregnancies. at the end of it weighed less than beofre i fell pregnant. dd's weighed in at 6lb 15oz, 9lb and 7lb 14oz.

You would have to do a special exercise in Muddling Things and Dodging Work, Fio, and it's yours.

I ended up in hospital three times, it was a nightmare. Im just so scared of doing it again.

I don't have much luck with girls.

ds 1 - no sickness
dd 1 - sick sick sick!
ds 2 - no sickness
dd2 on the way - sick again!

im afraid ive had sickness with every single preg which gets worse with each one, last 3 pregs i had to admitted to hospital and put on a drip.

ditto that, its got worse with each pg, awful awful time.

1st preg was nauseous much of the first 5 months and lost weight because I couldn't face any food; 2nd time round was actually chucking up as well as feeling sick. Ended up in hosp and eventually got better at around 14/15 weeks.

I know another friend & fellow mumsnetter who was hospitalised for both and was pretty sick right up to the end, poor thing.

with dd2 the sickness never went away, until she was born!

Doesnt look very promising really then does it? How did you all cope with the kids you had when you were so poorly when you were pg?
