The excessive vomiting during pregnancy deteriorating the health of the mother is known as
Hyperemesis gravidarum
The correct answer is Hyperemesis gravidarum.
Hyperemesis gravidarum is severe, persistent vomiting in pregnancy that affects the mother's health - causing dehydration, ketosis, electrolyte imbalance and weight loss of more than 5% - and often needs hospital admission.
Pregnancy-induced hypertension and pre-eclampsia are hypertensive disorders after 20 weeks, and abortion is pregnancy loss before viability; none is defined by vomiting.
Short trick: Hyper (excess) + emesis (vomiting) + gravidarum (of pregnancy).
