Starved

Hey guys. Please. For the love of god someone tell me there is hope.

I'm almost 8 weeks. And I can't eat or drink ANYTHING. Like. At all. I've tried everything.  

I'm at the point now where I just don't eat or drink anymore because I can't.  

My body feels horrible. I can't even get out of bed. All I seem to do is just cry.

It's awful.  I really don't know how people do this.

I got really sick one day and couldn't keep anything down as well . I went to the ER and they hooked me up to fluids and nausea medicine immediately after that I felt amazing they sent me home with nausea medicine as well which works wonders. Go to the ER as soon as you can if you haven't !

Have you still not gone to the hospital? This post was written hours ago. We've all given you the same advice and you aren't taking it

It happened to me and it still happens tp me some days I feel miserable. I had to go to the hospital because I couldn't keep anything down in my stomach. The doctor told me I was severely dehydrated and they put me on  an IV. They also check on my baby and the baby was fine. Even though I throw up everything I eat I still eat because I know that at least the baby is going to somehow keep, absorb, or retain some of those nutrients.

Just so u know u will be n danger before baby. A woman can be pregnant and go days without eating. Our body releases nutrition and protein throughout the day even if we are lacking to take in.Baby is going to take that nutrients.and you will become sicker which seems to be happening now. Eventually though after you become malnutrition from baby taking it all that's.when baby will be effected. You should go to the hospital because dehydration causes preterm labor and in your case being so early in this pregnancy could mean worst. Sometimes calling the ambulance is a better choice than waiting for someone. This is your health

I don't know what the time is where you are but I hope you aren't waiting too long. How long has it been since you've been able to keep food down?
The Drs will hopefully admit you, put you on an IV and as soon as you are stabilised they will hopefully give you something for the sickness so that you can eat

Go to the hospital. You are probably dehydrated and you need fluids. They can hook you upto an IV and give you fluids and nutrients. Right now your baby is getting no nutrition at all. The longer you don't eat for, and the hungrier you get, the sicker you also get and your body won't allow you to keep the food down. Please go and get medical help if not for you then for your baby
