It's symptoms are severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy and you tend to loose 5%-10% of your pregnancy body weight. I am wondering how many of you have suffered with this disease or if you know anyone that has. If you have it, is it more common than one would think it to be?

I had never heard of this before I saw it on the Dr. Phil Show today. What debilitating disease and it can be fatal

I know, it was shocking to see! I can't believe that the first woman would have even thought of giving her kids up for a second in the state she was in on the show, she must have been a mess after having the twins to have gotten to that point, it's so sad.

this type of syndome appears to some of the women but it doesnot appear to some women. My friend used to vomit every thing she eat for almost 8 months of pregnancy. SHe has become so weak and thin.YOu too get nausa a lot. For me, i vomited and felt nausea for three months of pregnancy. After that i could eat lots and lots and this type of syndrome lost after that.
