Lucy

Welcome, Lucy. I'd love another volunteer from England. All I need is your name, email address, and general location, and when I am contacted by an HGer in your area, I'll pass along her information. The two of you decide what kind/how much to share and be involved. Just send me an email or a PM by using the bottons at the bottom of this post, and I'll get you added.

Hi I am from AZ, I have had HG with all three kids(it is a toss up between son and youngest daughter for worst). I will send an e-mail as soon as I can.

Hi,

I am from Canton, Wayne County, Michigan. I suffered HG throughout my PG and thankfully my 7 week old is doing wonderfully. I see there are 6 volunteers in MI. I would like to volunteer any help possible. Please add me to your list.

Thxs,
Samidha Kinikar

Thanks, Samidha. I've got you on the list. You Michigan girls can have quite the party--EIGHT of you now. WAHOO!

HI~ I just submitted a volunteer request and would love to be a buddy and help however I can~ I know when I was living through HG 3 times I needed HELP and did not know where to look. I feel passionate about this issue and want to help and share my story with anyone who is trying to live through it or who has similar experiences with HG in their life. I will post *MY STORY * soon....

Heather in NC

Thanks so much, Heather. We're working to merge the volunteer lists from the HER site and the forums, and I do call on site volunteers when needed, but if you'd like to send me an email or PM and get me your email, I can get in touch a little easier if someone from your area needs you.

I am Meghan and this is my first post in the board. I had HG from 5 weeks til 18 weeks (then it was just severe nauseau until I gave birth). I guess it would be considered pretty mild compared to others on here (though for those 13 weeks it felt like hell). I live in Aurora, CO outside of Denver and would love to be a volunteer as a buddy. I felt alone during my pregnancy and I wouldn't want anyone else to feel that way.

Thanks, Meghan. I've love to add you to the volunteers list; just send me an email (by hitting the button at the bottom of this post) with your name, location, and email address. There are so many varying degrees of HG, but what's really important is that we all understand the hell others are living through.

Hi

I had HG my whole pregnancy; I managed the illness with Zofran (aka the wonder drug!) and HG only ended for me the day after I delivered. I know how difficult it can be to do even little things that everyone seems to take for granted ... like entering a grocery store, brushing your teeth, or trying to drink a little water... so if there is anyone out there who needs my help then buddy me up! I want to help you!

I just moved to Manassas, VA from Clarksville, TN (and I am originally from NS, Canada).

I have a beautiful three and a half month old baby and I am very willing to show you what you have to look forward to.

Thanks, Cathy. Congratulations on the new baby! If you'd like to add your name to the volunteer list, send me a PM or an email. All I need is an email address to route HGers to, and you'll be contacted when someone can use your support. It's great of you to reach out to others!

Hi PamelaRose

Thanks for hooking me up to Claire in the UK. She has been a fabulous buddy. I am now available to be a buddy to someone else in the UK.

I have had excellent luck in getting the NHS to provide me with treatment -- although it hasn't been easy. I am happy to share what I have learned with others.

Best

Lisa

I'm glad to hear that you're past the worst of it, Lisa. I'll definitely let you know when someone needs your expertise!

I'm in Norway but am moving to KS, and am from NY, so if I fit in, and if we can make it via email and phone, I'm happy to buddy asap! Mine was in NYC while I was pg and in Norway, and it worked out well.
