Complications of Morning sickness

Morning sickness can occasionally last for the whole pregnancy. When it is severe, it can prevent you carrying out normal everyday life.

In its most severe form, hyperemesis gravidarum (severe vomiting) can prevent the body absorbing fluids. If this isn’t treated, it can cause rapid weight loss, headaches, confusion and collapse.

Morning sickness should not harm the growing baby, and hospital treatment, if necessary, is very effective at preventing severe vomiting.
