It is very possible that both of your wives' problems could stem from too much Estrogen and they would really benefit from progesterone. It might be helpful to look into some natural remedies that might be more effective in healing than the traditional medical route. I'm certainly not very knowledgeable on this topic, but I do know that there is hope for these problems to be overcome and many women have been helped by taking a progesterone cream or progesterone vitamin E oil (the best stuff I've heard of is Progest E complex oil).
I'll be praying for both ladies to find healing and relief from their sufferings.

| Re: | | Vitamin B6 is helpful too but the problem is if your sick you can't hold anything down. I hate how they call it "morning sickness". It's not just in the morning for alot of women. For some it last all day into the night. It really wears you out big time, especially when your sick like that for months. I got to where the room was spinning and the walls felt like they were closing in on me. Then my breathing got really shallow and slow by about the seventh month out of pure exhaustion. Thank God I made it though. He knows how much we can bear. God is very merciful.
I wish I had not complained so much while I was going through that. It probably would have wrought a much greater work in me spiritually.
My advice is forget that saltine/ginger ale advice, unless it works for her because it didn't me and just eat whatever you desire that is healthy. For me I mostly ate cereal and fruit.

| Re: | | Marissa tried vitamin B6 - and vomitted the capsules up. She tried ginger and it made her even more sick. Hyperemesis is not really the same as morning sickness; it's classified as a disease which can be diagnosed by intense weight-loss and extreme vomitting and dehydration in women. This, in turn, leads to severe vitamin deficiency and subsequent hospitalization. My wife has already been hospitalized twice in the past two months, and was on TPN for about a week and a half before her laproscopic cholestectomy.

Before her surgery, nothing worked; no amount of saltines, water, gingerale, fruit, nothing. If she even saw a TV commercial on food she would begin dry-heaving bile and blood. I had to eat all my meals away from home...but the worst of it all was I couldn't brew my coffee in the mornings.
At that point, I seriously didn't know who was worse off - me or her :).

I know brother Paul, it's bad stuff. My husband is the same way when it comes to his coffee.:-) I wish I knew what causes it but I think it is the curse of Eve. Her symptoms sound just like what I had. I didn't get sick though if I saw something on TV but I did when my husband didn't know what to buy grocery shopping and bought a weeks worth of speghetti--and it was the spicy stuff--PREGO. I hate PREGO! But I always did the cooking and shopping and now he had to. I felt really bad about it. Than one night someone cooked fish---in the house!:-)

Oh man, if I cooked fish I think I would become our next client at the funeral home. Funny you speak of spaghetti - it must be a guy thing because I went out and bought a several pounds of pasta and spicy marinara sauce (my favorite), thinking I could boil noodles quick and easy after work...but Marissa just about had an aneurysm with my first bowl. Turns out the smell of noodles boiling in water wafted into our bedroom - beneath the closed door, mind you - and caused her to begin vomitting. So now I have a half a ton of pasta and sauce in the pantry and I can't eat any of it. All I can do is look at it and dream. I thought I had everything covered, turning on the stove vent and all. Pregnant women have noses like bloodhounds on steroids...and I found this out the hard way. _________________ Paul Frederick West

You could try cooking on the grill. :-) Your right about our keen sense of smell. I would get sick over the smell of the paper trees down the road.lol!

| Re: | | Yes, I've tried the grill too (we live in Texas, you know - the barbeque capitol of the world), but the problem here is that when I come inside the whole place smells like smoke (or so she says). Believe me, I've tried it all. The only recourse I have is to eat out. But she's gotten better since then, praise God, and is now starting to eat certain fruit like strawberries and pickles (yes, cucumbers are considered fruit, botanically), and she actually just called 15 minutes ago wanting me to bring her home some peanuts, potato chips and apple juice. Now I'm getting scared. :-o _________________ Paul Frederick West

Well that is a definite improvement, praise God! I have been so burdened for you both all day having been there and done that ourselves. I know exactly what she is going through if that is any comfort to her. It's very difficult when women cannot take care of thier families they way they need to be cared for and do the basic things you need to do. It makes you feel like such a failure. I'm sure she'll fight her way through this with God's help very soon. She seems like such a strong woman. :-)
It sounds like your doing all the right things. We live in Florida so we do alot of grilling too.

| Re: | | Praying.
When my wife was having our first child, I was concerned, Jesus gave me the verse 1 Tim 2-15.... But women will be kept safe through child-birth... I didn't understand , so He showed me the first curse in Gen.3-16.. I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing;.... Then He showed me that Jesus became a curse for us. So the curse is reversed.
I just humbly acepted His word, both of our children have birthed quickly, and with less pain, the pregnacies were without problem, take Him at His word, if your sick trust the sripes of Jesus, if pregnant believe the curse is gone, because Jesus became a curse for us , at the cross.
