A MUM lost nearly half her body weight while she was pregnant - after extreme morning sickness made her vomit more than 50 times a day. Michelle Stevens, 33, went down six dress sizes and lost 7st 10lb during a horror pregnancy with son Ollie. She suffered with hyperemesis gravidarum - the same brutal pregnancy sickness experienced by the Duchess of Cambridge. Constant nausea from just four weeks in was so debilitating she even considered terminating the much-wanted pregnancy. She could barely eat or drink for nine months, and was hospitalised countless times as she dropped from 17st 3lb to 9st 7lb - all while pregnant.

A mother has revealed she lost nearly half her body weight after extreme morning sickness made her vomit more than 50 times a day.
Michelle Stevens, 33, from Saltdean, Brighton, suffered a complication during her second pregnancy called hyperemesis gravidarum, an extreme type of morning sickness which causes severe nausea - the same condition battled by Kate Middleton during her three pregnancies.
The mother-of-three could barely eat or drink for nine months, and was hospitalised countless times as she dropped from 17st 3lb to 9st 7lb - all while pregnant with son Ollie, one.
Michelle explained: The nausea was so bad that I contemplated terminating the pregnancy at points.
