She was suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum which afflicts approximately 5 out of 1000 pregnancies. Her doctor told her that she was “pregnant, not sick”.

This story is simply beyond tragic. This is just another example of medical doctors causing more harm than good. This poor woman must have gone through hell. I have a few friends who have endured Hyperemesis Gravidarum and from what they have told me, they would not wish it on their worst enemy. If your doctor tells you that you are “pregnant, not sick” then find yourself a new doctor or midwife. If you are really sufering from this debilitating condition then I do not recommend doing your own prenatal care because you may need intravenous hydration or nutrition.

If you are diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum some of the treatment options are: (and they do not include abortion)

• Hydration and anti-nausea medications
• Nutrition by vein
• Vitamin B6
• Vitamin K
• Ginger
• Chamomile
• Anti-nausea bands

This is a sweet and moving story about a woman who becomes pregnant for the first time in her mid thirties. While it is very touching, the majority of the article focuses on the prenatal tests that she is “required” to take before she can enjoy her pregnancy or tell anyone about it.

Please understand that none of the tests are “required”. They are scare tactics plain and simple. If you are a healthy female with a good diet and a minimum level of fitness then for the love of God, don’t let them stick a needle in your womb! Think of your baby. Trust your instincts. It just does not make any sense. These “diagnostic tests” are only for parents who will chose to abort a fetus that does not meet their criteria for joining their family. If you will not hold your prospective child to such high standards, then refuse the tests. You have every right to do so and your baby will thank you.
