When I was pregnant there were two things that were important to me outside of having a healthy baby: give birth in the water and breastfeeding. After I missed out on my water birth, I was determined more than ever to try whatever I could to breastfeed my daughter. Well let’s just say it hasn’t been an easy road.

This is how I’ve spent the majority of my pregnancy. It is estimated that less than 3% of women suffer from hyperemesis gravidarum.
