Hyperemesis Gravidarum Support and Research Forums

Hello, I am 14 weeks pregnant with twins with HG. Third pregnancy with HG, have a 2 year old and 1 miscarriage. This is by far the worst likely due to twins, would love to have support of someone who has been there.
Thank you so much.
Nancy

Got you both down, ladies. Texas and Maryland and twins volunteers, coming right up!

Hi i'm ten weks pregnan and have just finally been diagnosed with HG.
are there any free buddies in England? Sussex?

thank you!!!!!!!!

Yep, we've got plenty of UK ladies. I'll email you, but I won't even attempt to try to match up locations as I'm so completely confused about your Home Counties and Old Counties and Shires... LOL Louise in Kent will know who's near you, and she'll be happy to line things up.

Hello Natalie

I have just sent you an email, hope that it reaches you ok. I put HG support UK in the subject box so you know that is not juke mail.

Hi everyone, sorry I have not been around I forgot my password too! tahnk you for help me Pamela..

Hi Nancy I had HG with my Twin pregnancy and when I was first told of HG they said (whilst doing the scan) "o thats why your so ill, you are having twins" but I think it was just I was going to have HG no matter how many babies I was carrying but because it was my First I wouldn't know if it was the worst or not. I am currantly in talks with hubby about more little babies but he's not so sure because of HG. How are you coping having a little one as well?

Well I really hope that I can get on here later as I missed reading the boards.

Take care hugs to all.

Louise

i would love a PA buddy

I will be in touch--I've had the buddy list fired up all day!

After some lingering in the first tri folder and a downer of a week, I think I am in much need of a buddy. My name is Megan, I am an American in Melbourne, Australia. I'm 11 weeks along in my second pregnancy (I have a two year old daughter). I'm living in Australia while my husband works on his MBA here. And HG struck with this one about 4 or 5 weeks ago and decided to really peak about three days ago.

Soooo glad I found this website. The info and support is tremendous and much appreciated during this difficult time. Thanks so much!!!

I'll email you again, Megan. Congrats - You're the 2nd girl from the Illinois list who's 11 weeks pregnant!

Thanks, Pamela. My profile e-mail address is actually not correct (I've tried to update but keep getting an error message). I'll PM you with the correct e-mail address.

Thanks so much!

Got it!

Hi there, thank you for setting this up! I'm in Oregon, I'm 9 weeks 5 days pg, and I'm totally miserable. I've been in bed for 2-1/2 weeks now, and vary between being just utterly nauseated and unable to function, and being unable to keep anything down, even water. I've had 5 rounds of IV fluids, and today my midwife suggested getting IV Zofran in a few days if I don't improve. This just sucks. I'm so scared it's going to last the whole pregnancy! I don't know what to do. Would love to have some support.

Hello

I am back to the site - 3rd HG pregnancy. EDD 28th November 2007 so only just starting on the journey. So far no HG but am expecting the worse (well what I remember of it anyway!). I am in the UK near London and to be more specific the South West of London so Richmond, Twickenham, Teddington, Kingston area... a buddy would be lovely!

bye for now
Clara

PS the site has really moved on since December 2003 when I was last here! Congratulations on all the hard work it looks amazing!

Hi PamelaRose,

I would love a buddy!! I am not new to the site--this is my 2nd HG pregnancy--but I could really use the extra support this time around. I live in Phoenix, AZ.

thanks,
azgal

Fern, it was nice to hear from you. And Clara--CONGRATULATIONS! I'm thrilled for you. I'll pass along your request to Louise so you can have things lined up quickly. Same for you, Krystal - I'll be in touch about a buddy soon. So many new babies coming along here now.

I'd like to be a buddy for someone newly pregnant in Kentucky w/hyperemesis. I'm 34 weeks along and my symptoms have toned down remarkably.

I'm 19 and a college student. I found out I was pregnant Aug 31 and started having symptoms a few weeks later. I dropped from 120 pounds to 108 in three weeks. I couldn't even hold down water. I was throwing up at least ten times a day, most days at least 15. It was miserable. I was IV'd on several occasions for dehydration and ended up dropping out of school late October, when I was 12 weeks pregnant.

My symptoms started to taper off at around 22 weeks, but I still get bouts of nausea, but not nearly as bad. I've gained the weight back, thanks to a nutritionist at my college telling me to leave and also treating me early.

I've been there, done that... and would love to be a buddy for someone going through it.

Thanks, Laura. I'll add you to the volunteer list and let you know when someone needs your help!

Pamela,

Thanks for doing this for us. I emailed you the pertinant info. It's just amazing to me to see how many people are going through the same thing as me. I have been feeling so alone lately, and this forum is just what the dr ordered. Well, the nurse. She was the one who pointed me here.

Thank you,

Molly

I would love a buddy as well. I am in Florida on the Treasure Coast (Port St. Lucie). I have lots of questions, I can't wait to look around the site!

Hi Pamela -

Would love to have a buddy right now. I'm in Tampa, FL. I'll PM you with my email address.
