In our last interview episode of You, Me & HG season two, we spoke with Eavan, HG survivor who speaks about navigating the highs and lows of Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG), exploring diverse topics such as triggers, constipation, and the challenges faced during her birth & in particular her postpartum, that rocked us.
This episode delves into the intricacies of HG, from its daily struggles to the often overlooked nuances, such as the difficulties of dealing with all the unglamourous side to what this condition brings. Listening to these stories & in particular Eavan's is a timely reminder that we need to notice the red flags of HG & actively listen to sufferers when they say they are struggling.
