Well this pregnancy is way more then I bargained for. This is my third and has been horrible so far. I have been hospitalized twice for dehydration, lost 20 pounds so far. Live on Phenegran 3 times a day, my IC meds never stay down, and so my bladder is out of control. And if that wasn't enough I found out I have this rare blood antibody called Anti-Kell that causes severe anemai in the baby, especially if hubby testsfor it also, and once my blood levels with that get so high i will have to be delivered no matter how far along i am. i live on the couch or in the bathroom right now and this is not what I expected. Sorry to drop this on everyone justed need to let it go. Thanks for listening.

That's terrible. I hope your systems calms down a little as your pregnancy progresses. I was so fortunate with my first two pregnancies, but the third one I was the vomit queen --- and I had all three before IC. I can't imagine how awful you must feel with IC on top of the nausea.
Sending gently healing hugs,
DonnaStay safe
