If you're still throwing up and dehydrated, your doctor may recommend you check in to the hospital. Once there you may get:
- IV fluids. Doctors will give you saline and possibly electrolytes and vitamins to help keep you hydrated.
- Tube feeding. If you can’t keep anything down, the doctor may give you nutrition through a tube that goes through your nose and into your stomach. In extreme cases you may need a tube connected directly to your stomach or small intestine.
- IV feeding. This bypasses the stomach altogether.
Once you aren't vomiting so much and are able to hold down food and remain hydrated, you may be able to stop treatments.
Try to remember that it does eventually stop -- and the birth of your baby will follow.
