A mum who had her teeth removed after she vomited so much while she was pregnant has gone on to have more children and embrace life without her teeth. Louise Cooper, 26, fell pregnant for the first time while she was working as a nanny at a ski resort in France.
A week after finding out, the mum-of-three said she got so sick she had to move back to the UK. Louise was diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG) in April 2017 – a condition which affects around 1% of women. Louise would vomit so frequently, her teeth started falling out.
Her first child, Zachary, five, was born in November 2017 and six months later Louise had to have all her teeth removed as they were so damaged. Since then, Louise has had two more children, has embraced life without teeth and often goes out without wearing her dentures.
