O21.8: Other vomiting complicating pregnancy

The cause of the frequent vomiting is not your pregnancy, but an illness.

This frequent vomiting may result in additional problems. For example, you might lose weight or have too little fluid in your body. You may also be taking in too few nutrients and your body’s metabolism may be disturbed.
