Update.
21 weeks now and finally starting to feel a bit better. Well after lunch that is.
Morinings are still bed bound but am starting to feel like I'm getting there.
Have reduced my Meds and are doing well atm.
Had ultrasound and things look good so thats a relief. concidering migraine drugs in December which left me worried.
House still looks like WW3 exploded all over, but with the state it's in I'll have to sit and take each room one day at a time making sure stuff is put away not placed elsewhere which is what it happening atm and it's driving me crazy.
This is by far my best pregnancy to date.
Hope you are all starting to feel a bit better too. Please update us. Now I'm starting to feel a bit better I want to support you guys still suffering if I can.
Hi Guys,
It's been awhile since anyone posted so I thought I'd post an update in the hopes someone else will pop in and say hi.
I am I think 27 weeks maby 28 I can not remember.......sad I know.
Am still struggling with MS a bit now taking Restavit one tablet every night and maxalon during the day.
I'm too scared to stop the restavit at this stage.
At this stage I have avoided the glucose test which makes me ill for a week after which is a real set back, although the residing ob may force the issue.
Had my blood tests today for Rh neg blood group for testing and off next week for my first anti D injection this pregnancy. I was truly worrying about the blood test (I faint and vomit and go all weird) but the lady who did it was very gentle with me. I have squeezed pimples that caused more pain than this blood test. So it was for a blood test a plesent experience.
Hi doesn't look like anyone's been in here in a while. I was just dropping in as I am 10 weeks pg and am having another HG pregnancy, mild so far luckily. I hope the fact that no one's posted for a while means no one's suffering with the evil HG!
Sorry you are suffering HG again, it sux! It has been quiet in here for a while now. How many pregnancies have you had HG with? Im not pregnant so not going through it atm but will offer any support I can. Im glad to hear that it has been mild so far though
Hi
Sorry you have cause to be in this thread but happy you have us to get you through it I love you signature, existing is exactly right word.
I am not pregnant now, not sure if I will be again but still happy to hang around and lend support.
I had a HG thought the other day though, I had horrible gastro recently and looked at dates and a faint 'pregnancy' thought cros my mind, then thought to myself there is something wrong with the world when gastro counts as a pregnancy scare LOL
Hi Lily Dust and Sagres, I'm sorry I have to be here too but here I am and I'm glad the thread is here.
This is my second HG pg out of 4, well 5 I had a m/c about 20 years ago between my eldest 2 boys.
This is a surprise pg as I had made the decision for no more. We did some talking about a sibling for our youngest closer to his age, but after a bout of gastro a few months ago, just like you said Sagres, reminding what HG was like I freaked out and said I can't do it again! Well apparently the universe had different ideas and here I am.
I had lost 6kgs by the time I was 7 weeks along and slightly dehydrated, and that was without vomiting, all from the overwhelming nausea and food aversions. I haven't been able to work for 5 weeks now, but, I've so far managed to avoid any vomits. Although it didn't really ramp up for me in the vomit department until 12 weeks last time and was then pretty much daily until I was offered Zofran at 4 1/2 months. I was completely bedridden by now with my last pg, this time I'm doing a lot better, I think it's because I knew what I was dealing with and got onto meds as soon as I caught on. I'm taking 8mgs of Zofran and 1/2 a Restavit before I get up in the morning, then 4mg Zofran and another half Restavit late afternoon and a whole Restavit before bed at night. All weight loss has stopped since starting this dosage about 2 weeks ago which is good. I still can't move too much, but sitting still I feel okayish most of the time. Still have the headache most days a shower exhausts me, and the car is a nightmare. But really doing quite well for HG.
I was lucky enough last time for the HG to leave at 5 months and not return so fingers crossed it will leave me again soon.
I've actually had a few days of feeling a bit better and being able to eat a bigger variety of foods. Yesterday I even felt thirsty and hungry a couple of times, I've not felt either of those things for about 6 weeks now. I want to think it will last but I don't want to get ahead of myself in case it doesn't.
Did you guys have it the whole time with your pregnancies?
Sagres it's definitely not 'living' through a HG pregnancy, well not for me, I'm just here trying to ride it out. I do know that so far this time and last time I was a lot better off than a lot of other women with HG and I think myself lucky all the time, well most of the time, when I'm not having a real poor me moment or day.
