My sister had severe hyperemesis for the first four and a half months, she was given a termination package from her hospital (she is a allopathic doctor). She took everything in her stride. The moment she started feeling better she had lots of visitors, drove over 400miles for an alumni get together. My mother was visiting her and she wants to make everyone happy. She has great energy and has a great sense of responsibility (eldest in the family). She is slightly bossy, but very caring. This pregnncy was unexpected, but she is not unhappy about it. There was also a disappeared twin. With the premature birth of her second child, there was lot of complications, but she didn't breakdown. She is a fighter.
Currently there is a slight problem with her mother-in-law who doesn't get along with her eldest daughter (4.5 yrs old), and her husband had taken up for his mother. The mother-in-law(84 yrs) wants to return to India and the hisband was planning to travel with her, which will probably not happen now.
She doesn't sound too upset with the current situation, but wants to prevent the surgical procedure because she doesn't like the idea of the spinal anasthesia. Even if she is upset, she'll not show it outside.
She hasn't said anything about whether she believes that the child will be born. She doesn't have other labor symptoms.
She doesn't believe in homeopathy, but I'm hoping that she'll be willing to give it a try.
Thanks a lot
