Teacher took her own life while suffering from severe morning sickness

A pregnant teacher killed herself after her medical care ‘contributed to a deterioration in her mental health’ while she suffered from severe morning sickness, a coroner has ruled.

Jessica Cronshaw, 26, was ‘reduced to a shell’ while expecting her first baby when she developed hyperemesis gravidarum (HG).

The condition, characterised by debilitating nausea and vomiting, gained prominence in recent years as the Princess of Wales suffered from it during each of her three pregnancies.

Miss Cronshaw was thrilled when she learned in May 2022 that she and her partner Eddie Leck were expecting a child.
