The third Thursday of every month from 12-1 PM/Central, the HER Foundation hosts an Online HG Support Group facilitated by licensed professional who are also HG survivors as a service to people with a current or prior diagnosis of hyperemesis gravidarum (HG). These groups are facilitated by volunteers Sarah Coffman and Elizabeth Lowder, HER Foundation Advisory Council members and HG survivors.
I was never diagnosed with HG because of the lack of education and knowledge regarding the illness. As a result, I experienced prenatal and postnatal depression and delivered prematurely.
The HER Foundation is helping a second generation facing Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG). If your mother have hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) when pregnant with you or siblings, we want to talk.
Hospitalized with a central line, TPN feeding tubes, and multiple medications at 4 weeks, the damage had begun. Four specialists said her liver would fail if she continued her pregnancy, she terminated her much wanted IVF pregnancy.
My name is Sally. I have three children: Rachel (born 1988), Timothy (born 1991), and Emilia (born 1997). I suffered from HG with all three pregnancies, before the HER Foundation began.
Thankful! Thankful is what I am. My babies and I survived Hyperemesis Gravidarum only because of the amazing support we received from the HER Foundation.
Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) does not look the same for every patient. Learn about the severity levels.
We frequently receive questions about why HG patients need more thiamin than their healthy counterparts. A pregnant Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG) patient cannot eat a nutrient rich diet and may not be able to eat at all. A healthy pregnant patient can eat a nutrient rich diet that includes a variety of foods.
The HER Foundation’s staff, clinicians and referral coordinator volunteer many hours each year to respond to thousands of emails, messages, and calls for help with Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG). This is core to our mission, and we want to share why we want to expand this service. Enjoy these heartwarming messages and stories.
