    Do you really believe half the crap that comes out of your mouth.

    To the OP:
    There are plenty of government programs designed for pregnant women and giving them the help they need to get what they need. I'm on medicare/aid and it pays for every bit of my pregnancy and the meds I need for it. Maybe you could get that?
    If you still do not want to risk your health, and you feel it's best for you to terminate the pregnancy, that doesn't make you a murderer. If your guy thinks of it that way, you tell him to get pregnant and deal with the fact that it might kill him. Tell him to get off his lazy butt and get a job to help you with the costs of being pregnant....he did play a part in this.
    If you think you can get the help you need and want to keep your baby, that's wonderful too.
    In either case, I wish you the best of luck!:)

    HG is VERY serious. My cousin had it. She weighed 25 punds less when her son was born than when she became pregnant. He is her third. She was only IV nutrition for 5 months. Her son was born safely, but he had developmental delays. He is still a little behind. It was atributed to her HG.

    im taking Zofran which is $60 for 4 tabs its not on the pbs so its only $5for the kemo-cancer patients but because its a new drug its not cheap for every one else so the Dr. said to come and see her every 2 days and she will have so give me a dodgy script. so it only costs $12 for 2 days of little vomitting it stops the vomitting but not the nausea and lasts for about 7-9 hours the pot stops the vomiting the nausea and makes me wanna eat and keep it down but its like $25 for 1 day and only lasts 4-5 hours the dr also gave me valium which i dont need so maybe i can swap it for some pot

    its my own fault for getting prego i wanted another and was hoping that i wasnt going to be sick this time that last time it was just a one off thing.

    Yes. You never can know that it will be the same. For me my first pregnancy was fine, I didn't feel sick or anything, even though I miscarried.

    The second, I was constantly nauseous, depressed, going crazy, and I lost about 20-30 pounds, I couldn't eat. I didn't vomit very frequently though, but I wonder how are you doing mentally?

    Erin dear, we're all here for you. If you want to still keep your baby, then I would smoke pot because that seems to be helping you from what you posted. I myself would use pot over any prescription drugs. hang in there dear. do what you think is right. never ever listen to what others believe you should do! <hugs>

    I was on Ortho-something(I don't remember it was a bit of time ago)...and we used condoms. Yet...looky at my two bebes. That's ok though, I wuv them just the same even if they were "accidents". My little accidents that I wouldn't turn back time at all for.

    Well, Erin, the choice is yours - and its a really difficult one.
    That shows however that you care about this baby after all and that you
    are definately not a "murderer". I think if you already had suicide thoughts
    during your first pregnancy because of your condition you should seriously
    think about it - are you ready to go through that again?
    First comes your health and the child you already have, that child needs you.
    I don't know, it's difficult to imagine such a situation - its easy to just advise
    someone without having ever experienced a similar problem.
    Whatever choice you make, you have to feel ok about it -
    if it's abortion, go ahead and don't feel bad about it. You have to be there for
    your first child. You are not a murderer, you have a serious health problem.
    If you should decide to keep your baby then I agree with the others -
    you must have the best medical care available. If you can't get those meds
    then you can't get through this in good health.
    And that would just be irresponsible, wouldn't it?

    Good luck to you,
    I hope all turns out as you want it to...
