The trifecta from hell

Anonymous
So sorry, OP. Main thing I recommend is getting someone to help with your 2yo if you can. You are going through hell and need to be able to focus on your own bodily needs.

I sit on the toilet and puke in a bag (because I pee when I puke) and itch incessantly between dry heaves. I have a 2yo I'm the main caregiver for. 33 weeks and struggling is an understatement.

Any tips to calm the itching? I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.


Gin Gin ginger chews + ginger tea + Attitude Living lotion or BeautyCounter Balm


OMG stop it you spawn of satan. Ginger chews do not help HG. I literally HATED people who said this to me.

OP I am so sorry, I was there with you minus the cholestatis but + some weird heart palpitations (not as bad as itching!). I'm sorry. You can do it. There's nothing left but to endure the end. Outsource anything you can if you can. I am so sorry.


Look, I'm sorry it didn't work for you but you don't need to be so rude. Spawn of satan? Seriously? How overly dramatic.

It helped for me and you're being a jerk without cause. All you had to say was that it didn't work for you. Don't direct your anger at people in your life towards random strangers offering suggestions based on what worked for them on the internet.

Even if it doesn't end up helping her nausea specifically it doesn't mean it isn't a valid suggestion. If nothing else the gin gins get the taste out your mouth and the rest of the suggestions for itching are still valid.


I'm not the snarky poster, but she is right. Giving super basic suggestions like those are not helpful for someone with this level of suffering. If you were my friend and gave me those suggestions it would make me feel like you were not empathetic to my situation.
