Michael explained that at first he thought his symptoms were normal, but as the weeks went by his discomfort became ‘extreme’.

“He was vomiting, refusing to eat, couldn’t tolerate drinking water, nauseated 24 hours a day and couldn’t get out of bed,” he added.

Michael stopped working as a personal trainer to care for his future wife, but he also saw his physical and mental health decline.

“I stopped exercising, I lost care of what I was eating, I was stuck in my own head and not present. He had zero motivation, zero willpower, zero self-care, and zero energy. I lost a lot of muscle, gained weight, slept badly, and my overall health got worse,” she added.

Fortunately, Martha’s illness subsided at 22 weeks and she is now able to return to her daily activities and Michael is back at work.

What is hyperemesis gravidarum?

Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a condition that causes persistent and excessive vomiting during pregnancy.

People with it can get sick many times every day and be unable to keep down food or water, affecting their daily lives.

It is unlikely to harm the baby, but if it causes a woman to lose weight during pregnancy, there is an increased risk of her baby having a low birth weight.

It’s different from nausea during pregnancy, often called morning sickness, which is normal and affects eight out of 10 pregnant women. For most, this stops or improves around 16 to 20 weeks.

In the meantime, the HG may not improve at this point and may last until the baby is born.

Symptoms of HG include severe and prolonged nausea and vomiting, dehydration, weight loss, and low blood pressure.

Being dehydrated increases the risk of having a blood clot (deep vein thrombosis), but this is rare.

It’s not clear what causes the condition or why some women get it and others don’t.

Some experts believe that it may be related to hormonal changes in the body that occur during pregnancy.

And there is some evidence that it runs in families, and women who had it during their first pregnancy are more likely to have it in subsequent pregnancies.

Women with HG may receive medications to improve their symptoms, such as anti-disease medications, vitamins B6 and B12, and steroids.

Some women need to be hospitalized if nausea cannot be controlled with medication at home.

They may need to give fluids and anti-nausea medications through an IV.
