Hi, I have a 2 year old and I want to get pregnant again

Hi everyone! I have a daughter just turned 2 and I’m seriously broody. We want to grow our family to 2 children, but last pregnancy I had hyperemesis, and I’m scared of it happening again - especially when I have to look after a toddler. Does anybody have any advice?

I am 20 weeks pregnant with a 26mo old son & 2nd time HG. It was definitely extremely difficult in the early days because of the first try fatigue but after that wears off it’s not as bad! I’m still sick daily with meds but nothing like weeks 5-16. I got a Zofran pump & picc line placed at 9wks after losing 25lbs from HG and I needed to survive. Got that out at 17wks and oral meds are going well.

Definitely recommend building your village beforehand so your toddler has company while you’re sick (my biggest downfall) and advocate for your self!! Ask for extreme measures (zofran pump) if you think it would help!!
