Getting fluids

kinibruin · August 2010

Hi hi hi

like inamra, I have hyperemisis gravi something something. My ms was so bad. I guess it's not common but not uncommon either.

I'm getting iv fluids as I type this. I'm sleepy now.

on a good note, we saw baby again today. Lucky charm is doing well.

I had an old friend from high school who is about to have her baby in the next 3 weeks and she has the hyperemisis gravi where she has to have an iv pump constantly, still. I feel so terrible for her (and you), I can not imagine feeling that way all. the. time. How far along were you when you starting getting m/s?

I hope you are feeling better now that the iv fluids are kicking in, I know it helped my friend A LOT! Happy to hear that you saw baby again too Sending you getting better vibes kinibruin!

feeling a lot better.

dr. Put me on a medicine regimen. So while I'm not on bedrest, the medicine will knock me out.

Lindsay: it hit me at week 7 & has gotten worse. I'm at week 102d now...

thanks for the vibes!!! Oh I guess it affects 2% of pregnancies. I'm one of the lucky few. =

Yeah, I was surprised another nestie/you would get it since it affects such a small percentage...I thought I'd be the only one but I'm so sorry you're going through this cuz I know how miserable and torturous it felt. =( I hope the IV will help you feel better cuz it really helped for me. Don't be afraid to go in couple times a week as you need it. It really helps and your body and baby really needs the hydration. I would go in every other day sometimes even though it's hard cuz I never wanted to leave the house and riding in the car was hard on me but the IV would be worth it. I think I did it for about 3-4 weeks before I was able to hold down fluids (with Zofran) and stopped going. So don't be afraid to rely on the IV for a bit and hang in there! I really hope it passes as quickly as possible and that you feel better soon! Glad to hear lc is doing well! Generally, lots of m/s = healthy baby so at least that was always a relief for me...
