Oh, you are my favorite person today. I had HG and not only left my job, but racked up an astonishing $72,000 in medical bills over the course of my pregnancy, mostly due to my at least once-weekly trips to L&D for IV fluids, three hours of fetal monitoring, and IV antinausea drugs. I was also on a daily dose of…

The original article I read had a person commenting that they shouldn't have announced so early, since morning sickness is only present in the first six weeks.
