Twins for sure ! Common to have HG level sickness needing medical intervention !
I had it with my second pregnancy. It rolled in like a storm cloud. I was okay in the morning and by late afternoon I couldn't get off the couch, except to stagger to the toilet and heave my guts up.
I remember my then four year old knocking on the toilet door and asking if I was okay. My mum had to take over the household as I couldn't get out of bed and needed a dark room and sips of Coke just to maintain consciousness. My poor baby was surviving on Coke! I was in and out of hospital and sick until week 20 when it subsided - slightly.
Poor Kate. It truly is like your worst hangover ever, combined with your worst bout of seasickness ever, and never ever getting relief. I think I never had that third baby because I couldn't bear to live through this again.
