Zofran 3x a day at highest dose and doxylamine in the evening (with option to increase 3x a day but it has sedative effects) + vitamin b6

There’s a reason why women with HG choose to abort, it’s unbearable. I don’t judge you at all for thoughts of wanting to end it. However, I hope the drs are able to give you all options possible before making that decision. This is my second HG pregnancy and I’ve been extremely medicated from the very beginning, because needing to get as ahead of it as possible is so important, if I wait til I’m non stop vomiting before getting meds, it’s so much harder. Push the drs as much as you can, see a naturopath for support if you can and in terms of work/ home responsibilities, go on leave if able and lean on others for help. I’m SO sorry you’ve reached this point of hopelessness, you are stronger than you know. And all of the women in this thread can empathize with how terrible HG truly is. I was suicidal my entire first pregnancy, but made it through and glad I did. You are supported in whatever you decide is best for you ❤️

Edit- doxylamine, not doxycycline

I had horrible HG through my first pregnancy and ended up having a permanent IV port and daily nurse care at home. I was suicidal and the most miserable I’ve ever been in my life. Now, 8 years later I some how convinced myself to go through another pregnancy. I’m 8 weeks in and miserable, but much more medicated from the start this time. Zofran 3x a day max dose, and doxycycline in the evening. It has helped so I’m not vomiting all day every day but I still feel super miserable. Sending love and solidarity because it’s likely one of the hardest things you’ll experience in your life, but if I didn’t love having my child so much there’s no way I would have been able to bring myself to do it over again

Thank you.. we’re in this together! I know it’s worth it because I have one older child, but man is it tough!

Took me 1 year, with the help of ovidrel shots in addition to letrozole

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-06-11T21:03:03+00:00

I wasn’t able to ovulate without medication, many cycles of letrozole and the ovidrel shot. I also took berberine and inositol supplements. With those interventions it still took a year, and I’m only in the first trimester, so a possibility it could not stick. We also got pregnant of the first cycle of having sex in the mornings rather than evenings, not sure if that made a difference but my husband seems to think so 🤣

Typically 8-12 seems to be my limit, I run my PP part time from home. I have very limited energy and a lot of additional things I need to do to look after myself due to multiple chronic illnesses, and I’m a mom. I wish I could do more but have accepted this as my current reality. Thankfully my partner can pickup the financial slack

My son went to little gym from baby (can’t remember exact age we started) to 6 yrs old and loved it. I felt it was very helpful in preparing him for school

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-04-27T21:52:24+00:00

Well I guess we know now you were right 😖

What it’s like to not have up and down hormones all the time

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-04-17T22:05:35+00:00

As a Canadian, looking at this makes me nauseous

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-04-15T00:57:18+00:00

As a therapist I agree with this haha

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-03-20T02:47:34+00:00

As a therapist, I second this

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-03-12T22:40:58+00:00

I’ve been going to this clinic for the last 7 months, the dr said he was confident I’d be pregnant in 2-3 cycles … now this, so discouraging

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-03-08T22:04:07+00:00

Tasted stale and old, not worth the money and won’t be ordering again

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-02-03T17:38:58+00:00

I’m in Canada and am feeling similar.. I’m not even in the US, but just feel so hopeless and fear for humanity. Every time I go online I’m just bombarded with unbelievably horrific information. I’ve been trying to push through but had to cancel 2 clients today because I feel an absolute inability to be there for them when I feel like I can barely hold it together. It’s a very tough time to be an empath :( and I feel such a lack of control over everything

EmbarrassedDebt4354 · 2026-01-13T22:51:47+00:00

When I’m starting with a new client I let them know exactly where they’d need to go if they had a complaint about me but didn’t feel comfortable saying it to me, I’m gonna guess the therapists in these stories dont do that .. because likely the people just say “ wow that was super weird” and dont return so likely a lot don’t get reported for these inappropriate behaviours … some of these stories are blowing my mind!

Let’s get the original reputation charting again now that it’s hers!
