What is hyperemesis of pregnancy?

My sister is pregnant and feeling very sick all the time, much worse than normal morning sickness. My bhabhi told me about something called hyperemesis. What exactly is that, na?

I agree with the seriousness of this, it is extreme morning sickness. Getting IV fluids in the hospital is often the only way to stay hydrated and safe.

Please do not try home remedies or ginger tea if you can't keep even water down. Hyperemesis gravidarum is a severe medical condition that needs hospital treatment. Verify everything with your gynecologist immediately.

My sister is throwing up 6 to 7 times a day and losing weight in her first trimester. Is this considered hyperemesis, or is it just normal pregnancy nausea? We are very scared and don't know when to go to the hospital.

Beti, ye aam ulti nahi hoti jo garbhwati behno ko hoti hai. Isme sharir me pani ki bahut kami ho jati hai kyunki kuch bhi pet me nahi rukta. Turant doctor babu ko dikhayein aur drip chadwayein.

Normal nausea can be managed with a small piece of dry ginger, but hyperemesis is a different disease altogether where the daughter cannot even retain her saliva. Please take her to the clinic for proper medical care without delay.

It must be so tough when you can't even stand the smell of food during pregnancy. Hyperemesis makes eating anything impossible. If you have this, focus purely on staying hydrated with ice chips or electrolyte sips, and skip heavy meals completely.
