I feel sad because I can't be the woman my husband deserves, I feel like I'm a hindrance to him even though he's amazing to me. i love him but i feel he will be happier if i let him. i'm 5 weeks pregnant i suffer from hyperemesis gravidarum, i can't do anything at home and i feel like i'm failing as a wife. I don't know what to do, I feel sad.

@EwaBarros Hi. I’m sorry you’re going through a difficult pregnancy. Is it possible that the sickness and hormonal changes might have a effect on how you’re feeling? Is it possible that you’re being too hard on yourself? The wedding vows I am familiar with say, “in sickness and in health.” Right now, I hope your husband is supporting you through this time. Your job right now is to take care of yourself and your baby and let your husband take care of you.


— Wishing you health and happiness

@EwaBarros

I'm sorry that you are feeling this way. The situation sounds really frustrating. Having hyperemesis gravidarum is something that is out of your control, so you shouldn't be too hard on yourself for it. Pregnancy is a lot to handle, you are doing well. And I think communicating your feelings and concerns with your husband is very important to try to figure things out together.

Best of luck to you! Take Care!
