      What a difference money and titles make. When my missus was pregnant she spent the whole of the first few months just puking almost constantly, to the point where she was actually losing weight. Saw the GP several times (at the NHS walk in and in one case A&E, with me taking her every time), and they just sent her away with sachets of Dioralyte and advice about eating dry toast and ginger biscuits.

      Still, I wish the 'Happy Couple' all the best. I'm sure they'll make excellent parents, especially as they'll have the energy to be fun parents, having entrusted someone else to get up every hour through ever night for the first few months after the new arrivals arrives.

        Some kind of chief obstetrician said on the rajo that it was hyperwateverisis. I think. Kate must be loving having her uncontrollable vomiting symptoms relayed to the nation over the tea table.

            My wife is 14 weeks pregnant with our 2 nd child and she has had it too. It's only been this last week that she could do anything. We went to the walk in centre a few weeks ago and got some tablets for the sickness, but they really zoned her out. She went back to the walk in centre and was referred to A and E. Apparently the tablets shouldn't have been prescribed to a pregnant woman. She's off them now and is starting to get back on track. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Hope The Duchess makes a speedy recovery though.

              Yeah; common folk get morning sickness, but with money and a title you get hyperemisis :thumbsup:

                old wifes tail says: the worse the pregnancy the easier the delivery. Hope she can do some walking during her time, builds up good stomach muscles. And eat.

                If she's feeling that bad, then I bet it's a girl. :)

                  Hope it is a girl. Wonder if I'll get to see Queen Elizabeth III in my lifetime?
