problems keeping babies alive through the first trimester

I have a genetic disorder and it makes it so i can't keep a baby without medications but one of the medications makes me very sick I've been throwing up and have had nausea since i started getting closer to my second trimester I'm ten weeks now and this has been going on for two weeks now i can't hold anything down not even my medication like my prenatals and my low dose asprin and my calcium pills idk what to do the vomiting got worse last night i have nausea medication but it does nothing if i drink anything but water i get really sick and can't do anything the thing that makes me sick is a progesterone shot i get once a week i can't wait for the second of july its my last one i can't take this anymore idk what to do i am wondering if maybe i need to go to the hospital to find something to fix it

Ask your doctor for phenergan or zofran for nausea. Im also on the progesterone shots weekly. I have to stay on them til 37wks. Iv had 2 miscarriages one died at 11wks and I didn't know til I was 15wks. My second I lost at 17wks my baby was perfectly healthy I found out I have a weak cervix. Im now 12+5 the shots haven't made me sick but the progesterone capsule does sometimes. Im on 5 different prescriptions. The shot, progesterone capsule, foltx tablets, profe forte, and citranatal. Also try drinking ginger ale or gatorade. If you haven't kept anything down for 24hrs or start feeling really weak go to the er cuz you could be dehydrated which can also prevent you from keeping anything down.
