Any previous HG moms that are scared of it this time?

I had HG with my son. I started throwing up before I had a positive test and the queasiness didn't resolve until after I delivered. It was hell, and I am completely terrified about that happening again. It was tolerable last time because I wasn't also in grad school and trying to keep up with a 4.5 year old at the same time. At least we know the tricks this time around? Amazon is delivering B6 and unisom today and I have crackers camped out on my nightstand. Zofran script is on standby. Anyone want to hold hands and get through this part together?

    Didn't have diagnosed HG, but threw up around the clock every day from 6 weeks to 17 weeks even on zofran. Lost 15lbs. I'm bracing myself, I have no clue what this is gonna look like taking care of my 14 mo old! I'm skeeeered!

    I was never diagnosed with HG but I was throwing up constantly from 4 weeks to 20 weeks! I was so grateful that it finally subsided. I was on zofran and phenergan and I still couldn't keep anything down. I lost 20 lbs by week 20 and was hospitalized 3 times for dehydration.

    I am currently 4 1/2 weeks and still feeling great. I am so hoping this pregnancy is completely different than last!

    I really hope you both have smooth pregnancies this time around!

    I had it with my second child, and my last pregnancy, which ended in a miscarriage. The last one was the worst- it started at about 6.5 weeks, and I lost ten pounds in seven days before I got medication (horrible nurse who no longer works with my ob). The nausea didn't let up after I lost the babies, either - it took weeks. With my daughter, I thought there was something seriously wrong with me, and I went to the emergency room for dehydration before I even knew I was pregnant, left work in the middle of my shift because I was vomiting plain water in patient rooms (I was a nursing assistant at the time). Vomiting lasted until the seventh month, but I was nauseated until she was born.
    I feel not awesome now, but I've only thrown up twice. Fingers crossed! I've had other pregnancies that were easier, so I know it's possible for me...
