[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just want to say that while OP is probably a troll and if she isn't she is an idiot posts like this are really harmful to people who are suffering with extreme morning sickness.

I had hyperemesis three times and my mom had hyperemesis with all four of her children. I pray to a god I don't even believe in that someone finds a real solution to this before my daughters want to have children. That they never lie on the bathroom floor thinking they will die and contemplating ending a desperately wanted pregnancy because the idea of throwing up even one more time fills them with dread. So they don't spend the rest of their life dealing with PTSD and living in constant terror of getting a stomach flu.

Morning sickness, and frankly most pregnancy miseries, are maddingly under researched and misunderstood. Every woman who gives herself a pat on the bat for running 5 miles at 37 weeks is holding back the women who get SPD at week 21 and can't walk. It is luck and genetics and if we all really believed that instead of telling women that they just did something wrong to bring these horrible things down on themselves then maybe we could make better progress at helping the next generation.
