Hyperemesis Gravidarum

TheFatCow

I have had the unfortunate opportunity to suffer from Hyperemesis Gravidarum twice. If you're wondering what HG is it is a severe form of morning sickness. You maybe thinking, wow I had that but the best analogy I can give you is think about havinng food poisoning for 4 months or more straight. I lost 50 lbs + within the first month or so after finding out I was pregnant with each child with several trips to the ER and two hospitalizations with my first child. I'm 5'11 and after being on fluids for over a week my weight was up to 135 lbs.

You maybe wondering why I'm sharing this story. After each pregnancy I tend to rapidly gain weight way beyond my pre-pregnancy weight. I nursed both my children for 15 months and exercise all the things they tell you to do. I was wondering if anyone else has suffered from HG on here and if they've had the same issues and if they have success stories in loosing weight.

Good luck to all those out there that are reading this!!
