To My Hyperemesis | A Mother’s Letter About Severe Pregnancy Sickness

from The Letterbox Podcast · host Read By Me, Written By You

Hyperemesis Gravidarum is so much more than “morning sickness.” In this deeply personal letter, a mother opens up about the reality of surviving pregnancy while feeling completely consumed by it — the isolation, the fear, the guilt, the grief, and the quiet trauma so many women carry in silence.This is a conversation for the women who loved their baby deeply, but hated what pregnancy was doing to their body.For the women who felt invisible inside their suffering.For the women who were told to try crackers and ginger biscuits while barely surviving the day.Because two things can exist at once:gratitude and despair,love and trauma,motherhood and grief.If you’ve ever felt alone in your experience with hyperemesis, this episode is for you.And if you’ve never understood the true weight of HG before, this conversation might change that.Please listen gently and be kind ❤️ 💌We would love to receive your letter; if you have a story you want the world to know, something to raise awareness for or simply a letter you’ve written to someone or about something that you would like others to hear, please send it to us at [email protected]: HG, hyperemesis gravidarum, pregnancy, pregnancy sickness, pregnancy wellbeing, pregnancy support, pregnant, morning sickness, maternal health, maternal wellbeing, maternity care, motherhood
