Morning Sickness So Bad Mom Had Abortion

Unaware of options, a mother with debilitating morning sickness had an abortion. Ashli Mcall described her pregnancy as “torture, isolating, & alienating”. She went on to describe vomiting six times a day, hallucinating and losing 14% of her total body weight.

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
