Mum vomited 60 times a day during pregnancy and was on the verge of a heart attack

An expectant mum lost 3st while pregnant after being sick up to 60 times a day due to same morning sickness condition which plagued Kate Middleton. First-time mum Stacey Teakle, 30, was thrilled when she found out she was pregnant on her 28th birthday - but had no idea of the hellish journey ahead for her.

What first appeared to be normal morning sickness quickly spiralled out of control and soon Stacey was vomiting up to 60 times a day due to a condition called hyperemesis. Hyperemesis gravidarum is the medical term for severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy and has affected Kim Kardashian, Amy Schumer and Mandy Moore.

Stacey was hospitalised six times and lost 3st - and the condition left her on the verge of having a heart attack - before she welcomed baby Ophelia. She said the ordeal has made her decide to not have any more kids.
