I can hardly believe that I'm even contemplating doing this again. In this photo I'm 10 weeks pregnant and in hospital with severe malnutrition, dehydration and 10% weight loss thanks… https://t.co/ES6SWdrwNP
@SpewingMummy HG and alternative therapies.
At home IV's / Cyclizine Pumps?
A document that can be given to HCP about why they shouldn't rely in Ketones to gauge dehydration.
Something for friends and family to read to understand HG
@AssocBfMothers I did this and mentioned it in my pregnancy vlog. Gave me peace of mind in the first few days as she wasn't feeding that much but I could give her the colostrum I had been expressing the last 4 weeks of pregnancy.
@HGSupportUK I really considered termination! Fortunately, I am prolife and I think that's pretty much the only thing that stopped me. I am so glad about that now I can see my lovey 5 month old daughter playing and chatting away on the floor in front of me. :)
@HGSupportUK@RCObsGyn I was told that I wouldn't be treated if my Ketones were below 4+, it really deterred me from going to A&E. Turns out as well as being dehydrated I was also starved and malnourished. You can't pick that up with urine ketones!
