Hyperemesis makes American national news!

This piece was on the NBC Nightly News on Friday. Hyperemesis gravidarum, or HG, is the condition with which I suffered during Baby N.'s pregnancy.
Please watch this and tell the pregnant women around you about it. You may just save the life of a mother, a baby or both.

I'm a first time mum in Victoria that also suffered from HG. Happy to report that I now have a healthy, beautiful baby girl (8 months old). It's such a horrible thing to go through, both emotionally and physically. I look back on my pregnancy and shudder with the memories of how sick I was.
Are you aware of any local HG support groups here in Victoria?
