i was 19 when i found out i was pregnant and during my pregnancy i had complications through the first three months it was awful the symptom was called Hypermesis Gravadarium 70 percent of woman can have it they are not sure what causes it but i suppose in my case it was because my body was basically unaware of what was happening to it is was not prepared for my pregnancy that and our blood types were different. I would go 6 days at a time where i could not eat then i would get dehydrated i had to take three trips to the hospital i was worried but surprisingly i had my daughter 6 months later healthy as could be she was 8 days early but there was nothing wrong with her 5.6 lbs 18 1/2 inches beautiful blue eyes smiling from day one.

How was your pregnancy??

my daughter is now 7months 3 weeks 3 days old and she is getting so smart moving like crazy saying little words im loving it!! she tries to give kisses and growles at ya its adorable and she even does the breathe hard thing where they scrunchs their little faces lol she is a little ham! i cant believe she is going to be a year old in almost 4 months she has not fully started teething yet she has started to crawl and walking while holding herself up she moves so quickly i would not ask for her to be any other way her motor skills are amazing i am so happy i had a smart little girl!!

i want any tips you can give me for the upsoming months and years thank you

I had the same condition and I ended up in hospital too, It was awful but I had a healthy, happy baby girl and she is the best thing to ever happen to me.

its so nice to hear that after such a hard and trying pregnancy u have such an amazing bond with ur daughter.
I also had a rough time with my son with many hospital trips due to bleeds, threat of early labour and then finally pre-eclampsia.
My little man just turned 1 a week ago and it was a mix of happy and sad emotions, happy because of all the things he has achieved and looking forward to all the future things he will learn and do, but sad because he is fast becoming a little man and no longer my little baby.
Its incredible wat she will learn between now and her first bday, my son is taking wobbly steps on his own, power crawling :) so cute on knee and one foot. cruising along anything he can get hold of, talking up a storm with about 5 real words and just alot of babble. interacting with other kids and so much more. enjoy it while it last because as u would already know the time just flies by. have fun

I think you were blessed to make it through that with both of you still 100%! I'm so sorry to hear that you had that hard of a time. I know it wasn't easy.



Mine was .. I dunno? lol normal to some not to others? I went through the dehydration as well, I had horrible morning sickness. I was put on bedrest midway through for about a month. They told me she wasn't faced the right way and that I would have to take it easy or risk losing her or going into preterm labor. I also was positive for Hep B, which is said that would give complications and possible emergency C section. We both almost died the night I was induced. Our heart rates dropped to 9 and 10 BPM (according to hubby-I couldn't tell you anything of the night) but turns out the easiest birth ever and greatest baby I could ever hope for.



Haha tips for upcoming months. Make sure you have energy! they get hard to keep up with lol
