Pregnant and sick..

[Sarain]

I'm currently 5 months pregnant with my second child and very sick. Like my last pregnancy I have Hyperemesis ( extreme morning sickness that does not end) and have had to spend a good portion of of the last five months in hospital hooked up to an I.V.
I have also had sever digestive problems for most of my life, and because of my many health symptoms I believe I have major problems with malabsorption...Oh and I'm anemic.

In the past ( I've been raw on and off) I did I would do a 10+ day juice fast before starting raw foods and that would work perfectly and would feel 100% better..However, going straight from cooked to raw foods doesn't really do that much for me. But, now that I'm pregnant I don't feel its safe to do a juice fast! What else can I do safely to get healthy fast?

Green smoothie fast?

Juicing half of the day then eating raw in the evening?

Drinking a Chlorophyll supplement in water all day along with raw foods?

Any ideas for a good treatment plan for me?

I'd see an N.D. if I could, but I don't have the money!

Oh, I know how you feel, and I did go RAW. I bit the bullet and ate spinach/sometimes mixed with romain or spinach ceasar salad, what I am saying is alot of spinach for 2 weeks. I couldn't do smoothies. I figured I was throwing up al the timae anyway, well the first week was super hard to keep down and I CRAVED sad food, but by week 2 maybe once a day I would throw up and I found that it was a water issue. When I would just start to get queezy I would drink some not much water. ALL my nasuea/throwing up GONE! Well It takes along time for me to learn:confused: and I have had 3 more pregnancies since my discovery and always give in to Sad food until about 3 or 4 months and it is unbearable (the sickness) and I go RAW and surprise it all stops. I have never taken any meds for the nasuea/throwing up so I have experienced it to the max. You would think I would learn...
But it is AMAZING the effects RAW food has on the body even during pregnancy.

I was raw all today and was ok other then gas. I do have to take medication ( $26 a pill!) as with out it I throw up ever 10-15 mins around the clock regardless if I eat/drink or have nothing at all, and so I get dehydrated to the point where it could be fatal. Although some woman get it even to the point where NO medication will work and they have to remain in the hospital with a "pick" fed through their necks into their hearts...This is what they told me at the hospital!
Anyways I'm praying that raw will cure me and I can eventually stop taking medication before the end of my pregnancy.
