Hyperemesis Gravidarum Before During And The Aftermath

💜 I had cardiac arrest at 6 months pregnant.💔

Most people think the story ends there.

They think I survived Hyperemesis Gravidarum, delivered my daughter, and everything went back to normal.

It didn't.

The baby was born.

The aftermath stayed.

Years later, I still live with medical complications that began during and after my HG pregnancy. I still rely on specialists, IV medications, central lines, and treatments that most people never imagine when they hear the words "morning sickness."

HG didn't just affect 9 months of my life.

It changed my health.
It changed my family.
It changed my future.

And while I would go through anything for my daughter, I wish more people understood that for some of us, the battle doesn't end when pregnancy ends.

If you're living with the aftermath of HG, you're not alone. 💜

❓How many years postpartum are you, and has HG affected your health long-term?
