Goes without saying (but I have to say if anyway of course) I feel extremely lucky to be able to fall pregnant and carry children. Every bit of sickness and nausea is worth it 100x over ❤️❤️
Lucy Jessica Carter you are amazing! So humble! Your kids are so blessed to have you as their mum!
the.twin.equation very kind of you. Thank you so much ❤️❤️
Lucy Jessica Carter you are so welcome! We just started a twin channel! We would love your support!!!
Thank you for the video! This will be such a help to anyone suffering with pregnancy sickness! I'm 13 weeks and had horrible Morning Sickness since 6 weeks. I was put on medication however it got to a point I couldn't keep anything down or even get out of bed and at about 10 weeks and I was hospitalised. I'm now able to keep more food down and even had a Filet o fish today 😂, so to anyone reading this please know it will get better. There will be an end to the sickness and it will be worth it ❤️ You are stronger than you know x x x
I love that you’re using your platform to talk about this! 💞 I’ve had HG with my last baby and in this pregnancy and my doctors and local hospital couldn’t have been any more amazing! but so many women still struggle to get the help that they need because it’s not something that is heard of so people and even some doctors aren’t actually educated in it!
I wish more people would talk openly about it via social media 💙

I needed this so bad! I'm 7 weeks pregnant with my first child and i've been awfully sick since 6 weeks. I got put on some medication but the throwing up and sickness last all day I feel like I might die. (I know, I still have longs ways to go) I'm glad i'm not the only one who feels this sick. Thanks for the tips Lucy!! xox
mrxymel0090 no problem. My thoughts are with you as it’s a horrible thing to go through, feels relentless and never ending ❤️❤️❤️
mrxymel0090 try out the app Nevasic it really helped me. It’s pricey and takes about a week to work but it was a game changer for me.
Mine started at 6 weeks, i'm 20 weeks today and finally feel a little better 4 days of no sickness... i've felt soo miserable this pregnancy so fingers crossed this is the end and i can finally enjoy being pregnant. people don't realise how debilitating HG can be. thank you Lucy these are great tips xox
Leah Autumn I can totally relate. Personally it’s the most miserable I have left on a longer term basis. Hoping it’s the end for you ❤️❤️❤️
What a fantastic video with great tips. I too suffered with HG in my single & more recently twin pregnancy. It was HORRENDOUS but eased at 18 - 20 weeks. I lost a load of weight & had to see a dietician, not easy to fatten up to support a twin pregnancy when you're constantly puking & nausea. I found the night time the worse, it got so bad I used be up at night puking.
Fair play to you coming through the HG & rocking your twin pregnancy!
It’s so nice to hear someone else who experienced the same thing, I was hospitalised at 16 weeks for a week to stabilise my HG and put on 3 strong anti sickness, mine finally wore off at 22 weeks but was still sick randomly up until delivery! I’d love more babies but I would be so scared of it happening again! Thank you for getting it out there that it is much worse than morning sickness 💕
Hi Lucy. I’m 15 weeks now, have been on the same medication as you, 3 times a day since 9 weeks. I’ve only been in hospital once, for 3 nights last week. Your tips are great and I definitely agree with the ice one. I’m really hoping it eases off around 18-20 weeks like yours did 💕
Oh Lucy sorry you have had hypremisis I've had it bad for 4 months lost weight and put on drip twice. Its so draining. I had it with my daughter 13 years ago too. Yet not a single bout of sickness with my son. You look amazing and so glowing looking forward to your baby vlogs you not got long now.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. HG is so, so tough - mentally and physically. And then just adding that onto regular pregnancy symptoms (especially if you are carrying multiples, like you are!). I am so impressed that you were able to persist with your channel as much as you have done. Well done! I was very sick for my first pregnancy, and unfortunately lost our beautiful baby girl at 25 weeks when she was stillborn :( I also suffered from pretty severe sickness in my second pregnancy too - but started medication as soon as the first signs of nausea even started, and that made a big difference. I was still throwing up days before I had my second rainbow baby, but it was so much better than what it could have been. Great topic for a video. Thanks for sharing. Love your channel! xo
Malavika thanks you & I’m so sorry to hear about your first baby. All my love to you ❤️❤️❤️
Love this informative video and advice, i soooo wish I had these tips when I had morning sickness 😭 I’m also due on January 14th, and I suffered with such bad nausea and occasional vomiting from 6 weeks to maybe about 20 weeks, so glad I’m feeling pretty much normal again at 29 weeks!! All I could eat when I felt sick was bland foods- bread, baked potato, chips for literally weeks, so boring but that’s what worked for me, I would love to know if anyone else felt the same 😊
I had Hyperemisis in all 4 of my babies.. I was on drips in hospital and lost a tonne of weight. I had to spit to stop the sickness (sounds gross unless you have been through it). There was no medication that stopped it. I think there needs to be a strong line between morning sickness and the danger of hyperemisis. Was completely different.
I used to have fizzy water to try and stop it. Frozen peas and cucumber slices. Just kept me hydrated slightly longer.
So glad this is becoming more aware, I had hg with both pregnancies and had to go in for IV fluids and lost so much weight, ondansetron was such a life saver, I would still be sick everyday just not as much as without it however it never stopped for me and I was still sick when in labour and after labour.
currently 10 weeks pregnant with my second and omg the sickness is horrendous. Rang the drs do many times but apparently there is no more medication I can take 😭 fed up of feeling so ill and have an 18month old to look after thank god for my family the sickness really is awful I fee for all of you going through it x
Hang in there girl, there's tons of things that you can try to get peace, dont be disappointed. Its been a couple months that I have been on the same boat. I had severe nausea and good aversion. Rest is the primary factor in getting over the agony. I also recommend to take a look at an herbal cure "prenatal vitamins" by maternitytea.com. it got me unbelievable results in order to subside my nausea. I kept on taking them throughout my pregnancy and stayed absolutely fine. wish for you to have a healthy baby
Morning sickness is the worst :(. Just think of the beautiful babies you will have soon. Had my son a month ago and he was definitely worth it xx
My first pregnancy I had really bad HG but I’m 10 weeks into my second and it’s been nowhere near as bad as the first time! I’ve found if my stomach gets empty is when the sickness gets worse so little and often helped me a lot.
fyi ondansetron- is Zofron.. it is one of the strongest anti nausea medications they do not recommend pregnant women use it. In certain situations yes they do such as Lucys. Zofron is also given during chemo treatments for nausea, it is very strong. I have had to take it unfortunately for years but I do not recommend it, unless its absolutely necessary. Hope you have two beautifu healthyl twins Lucy!!
Even listening you talking about this makes me feel nauseous 😂 I had bad sickness with my first two pregnancies which I needed medication for but I wouldn’t have said it was affecting my day to day life massively and then came my third pregnancy. I remember lying in bed crying on the phone to the hospital because I was just too weak, it tailed off a little around 20 weeks but I continued to be sick until I gave birth. My best tip was to sip water a lot! I got through litres and litres of it a day and even though it was coming back up it was helping me not to become ridiculously dehydrated
Hope you are not that bad this time around. I would back hospital for not helping you with medicines as they are as helpful for and for the baby instead you can go for herbs that at least dont hurt you anyway. I have been on a DHA approved prenatal vitamins which really eased off the agony. Just to take a glimpse over maternitytea.com for "Prenatal vitamins" could bring you tremendous peace. hope for the best as the sickness doesnt last for ever.
I’m 28 weeks and my HG is still keeping me awake at night with nausea 😭 I’ve been on ondansetron since week 12 which mostly stopped the vomiting but nothing really cures the nausea. Countdown to January for me!! I’m so happy your symptoms have gotten better and you can properly enjoy your pregnancy now ☺️ x
ask for the dissolvable one.. it works in seconds.
marriedthemusic that’s the one I already take. Doesn’t really prevent nausea but it definitely stops vomiting in seconds like you say!!
I don't have any children yet so I've never been pregnant and can't relate but I really appreciate your honesty in this video and I'm so sorry you've been feeling so ill. Sending you all my love!
I always find your videos so helpful! ❤️ thanks for sharing your experience!
I feel so lucky to have had relatively easy pregnancies. I couldn’t imagine feeling so sick and ill 👎🏻 won’t be long until those beautiful babies are in your arms 🥰👍🏻
Poor you Lucy, I suffered with this and that was with my first pregnancy, it cleared up by about 20 weeks. I never had 2 boys to run after, I dont know how you cope. I am a nurse and we all struggle with the pronunciations of the conditions, your doing fab xxx
Jodie Howlett thank you Jodie! It’s a horrible thing to go through, and the main reason I won’t have anymore children. I have done my time with morning sickness I think 😅❤️ xxx
I had HG to the 22th week. I thought i would die. Now i am in week 28 and Feeling sooo good 🥰
This is exactly what I went through sickness every 10 minutes and dehydration! No medication worked unfortunately. and these are the exactly the same cravings and things I did! Iced water always with me! And I must of gone through 2 cartons of orange juice a day! Like my partner was banned from even looking at my orange juice 🤣. My hg then lead to pulmonary embolisms in Both lungs from how bed ridden I was unluckily! My hg lasted from 10 weeks till I was giving birth and then instantly stopped the moment the placenta came out! All worth it and a very healthy big baby boy!
Thanks Lucy - my sister in law is really suffering at the moment with morning sickness and she has recently been prescribed Ordanestron but is really worried about taking them... at this point she doesn’t know whether she’s pregnant with twins, all she knows is that she can’t hold anything down and she’s really struggling. She wanted to know if you took the meds everyday and if you had any reservations at first too? Lots of love, you’re doing amazing xx
Sharon J I’ve been on the same medication since 9 weeks. It’s improved my quality of life significantly. It’s still really rough but I can at least keep some foods down. None of my doctors are concerned about the type of medication. Hope she feels better soon!
Wish I hadn't just come out of my sickness. I'm now 19 weeks and although I only had what I expect was average sickness (baby number 1), it lasted until 18 weeks! Nobody prepares you for that. I still can't drink room temperature water either. I couldn't cope with sweets but absolutely loved pepperamis, because they are so strongly flavoured! Everything else had to be plain tasting and beige.
I couldn't brush my teeth properly for a long time!! Especially not a tongue clean 🤮 thanks for your tips x
Charlotte B thank you for watching ❤️❤️
How did you manage with looking after the boys and feeling soo ill?? I have a 6month old and had really bad morning sickness with her, its scaring me about getting pregnant again and looking after her too xx
I just want to mention that there are levels of hg. And i had the worst of the worst. You wont be even sitting or walking... I had it for 8 months, 20 times hospital stays.. Last 2 months,they keep me in the hospital. I coulnt walk, eat.. even the lights hurted my eyes, my legs ware sooo weak.. I coulnt walk... As soon as i was 37 weeks, they made me have the baby. It is horrible horrible horrible, i prayed to die every single day and feld guilty because of the baby.the worst thing about extreemly hg.. It breaks you emotionally, it leaves you with nothing, i was a zombie.. Zofran helpt me a bit.and still.. I want a second baby😂.. I am innnnnsane. But good to see that you are feeling better🌹🌹🌹
CIRCLEOFROSE I have HG too and feel so glad to have it mildly. It doesn’t feel mild but it’s important to keep it in perspective I guess. I’ve been hospitalized once and I’m 15 weeks now.
@@jules_1980 when i see other women that are pregnant and talks about it.. I feel happy for them because i didnt have that. I dont want to compare.. Which a lot of people do.. Like.. Omg.. You.. Had the worst.. But it has been 2 years ago for me and you are dealing with it now. So i feel for you, honey.. I hope you will get pass it soon. I wanted to make sure.. People knows.. That i can br much much much worst and sometimes.. Nothing helps you.. The only thing that helped me.. Was the birth.. Which was nothing compare to the hg i had😂😂😂.. Because i wanted her.. They told me.. You need to push with all you have.. We know you dont have much strength.. But try before we cut you open.. And i swear.. It was like i become superwomen,with 2 pushes.. She was out😂😂😂
Haha how funny is Jenson ❤️
My first pregnancy I was so ill and couldn’t keep anything down, not even water.
I’m now 9 weeks pregnant and have felt sick but haven’t been sick 😄
Omg I’m so sorry your experiencing this! I had hyperemesis with my last pregnancy and it suckeddd. You look great tho! I looked a hot mess the entire time lmao. Keep going momma, your almost there
Vanessa R thanks Hun luckily I’m a lot better now ❤️❤️❤️
HG is just horrible. I'm so scared to have another baby, HG being the main reason. My pregnancy was TOUGH, my HG did not go away till I gave birth. Anyone had HG in first pregnancy then go on to have a HG free second pregnancy?
Prayers and hugs to all who are going through this! Xx
I love your videos... I had hypermemis gravadium with my little girl who was my first from 6 weeks till 23 weeks then it calmed down to throwing up once a day only in the morning worst thing ever! Nothing worked for me at all just had to wait it out. Xx
My daughter had hg in her single pregnancy couldn't even keep water down anti sickness tablets didn't help she started being sick from more or less the start of her pregnancy and was still being sick while she was giving birth as soon as her daughter was born it stopped and she still managed to work full time it's awful having to watch someone go through that and you can't help suffice to say she only had the one lol xx
T that must have been awful for her. It’s a horrible thing to go through ❤️❤️
@@LucyJessicaCarter it is and I feel sorry for you xx
Thanks for sharing Lucy x ❤️
I had HG with both my pregnancies, it is the worst thing in the entire world 😩 my first pregnancy was the worse I was in hospital about 7 times and ended up losing 2 stone in total 💕
How do you look after your boys while being so so ill? I have 2 boys and I'm nearly 10 weeks. My sickness have been with me for 4 weeks and it's driving me nuts!?
Thank god for this video👏🏼 struggling so much at the moment and still at that stage where nobody knows I’m pregnant🙉 I’m going to try everything!! Hope something works 😂 xx
Abi Boyce I hope so! It’s horrible, love to you ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Lucy I'm a new subscriber and I'm loving your vlogs already ❤️
Ice craving can be a sign of anemia. Lots of women crave ice during pregnancy because of this but obviously you used it to curb sickness. Just thought I’d mention it in case anyone was craving ice!! I used to suck extra strong mints and have to drive with the car windows fully open (in all weathers) and couldn’t use a hairdryer, during my morning sickness. Anything to get through, isn’t it? 💕
Labrador mom anything to get through absolutely. Was not anemia in my case, but interesting to know xxx
Keep up the good work Lucy ❤ xx
Sue B thank you ❤️❤️
I had hg through my first pregnancy and I was put on tablets all the way through my pregnancy I couldn’t even keep water down so was very dehydrated I ate lots of polos throughout that pregnancy so mints do help xxx
Hehehehe Jenson💙💙💙 I had to eat salt and vinegar chips and peanut butter sandwiches in the middle of the night to curb the nausea
Your looking good Lucy like the volg also like the jumpers your whereing 😊💓
I have had HG with this pregnancy and it is my 3rd (1st girl after 2 boys) and I have had most of the same symptoms. Especially the funny taste and having to brush my teeth or eat a mint just to keep my mouth fresh! Maybe its a girl thing also haha who knows. Glad you are feeling better now :) I have the odd morning where Im still being sick and im almost 25 weeks now but atleast I can eat now!
Michelle Gaskin maybe it is a girl thing! Who knows. So glad your feeling better Michelle ❤️❤️❤️
@@LucyJessicaCarter thank you :)
With the ice stuff is a sign of anemia too and I've been lucky just get nausea must be horrible xx
Gina Dinham thanks Gina for me it wasn’t that (I have been tested for it many times) ❤️❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️
You look amazing😙 where is your jumper from I love it!
Faye Aldridge thanks Hun! Topshop. Linked in the description ❤️❤️
Ice can actually be a craving in pregnancy some woman actually crave ice lollies

My Aunty craved ice through her most recent pregnancy
Amelia Herrick Ice cravings can be a sign of anaemia.
Labrador mom she’s had her baby two years ago now

🤗Your beautiful self🤗
Hope u enjoying your Great WeeK
Dee Luther thank you ❤️❤️❤️
😁YouR weLcomE😁
This is my biggest fear, I have emetophobia but really want babies 😞
harshoi I felt like this too, have always had a phobia of sick, but I’ve been pretty sick through my first pregnancy I still get so scared to be sick but I feel like I’ve gotten a bit more used to it, it’ll all be worth it in the end 💕
Izzie Thompson that’s good to know! It’s an awful phobia isn’t it😞 I’ve actually heard a lot of people get over the phobia after becoming pregnant though, like you say you just get used to it! Xx
❤️
Ginger is good for nausea
