    Em hugs. My thoughts exactly. I'm just short of 24 weeks and no end on sight
    Someone told me they were due in November and I said thank goodness I won't be sick in November
    Trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
    I'm really sick of being sick too
    It's just unrelenting

    I wish I could give you girls a sympathetic hug because I know exactly how you feel. At around 22-24 weeks in all 3 pregnancies I've really hit a down period where I guess I run out of steam for living with HG, and it's then I realise that I'm in for a marathon not a sprint.

    I suspect that hope we feel for it going away at 12/14/16/20 etc. weeks is kind of a self preservation mechanism to keep sane. So we do get royally disappointed when we pass that time and still feel like hell, but if that hope helped us get there it has served a purpose.
