Brief Answer:
Can happen due to twin pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
In a twin pregnancy excessive vomiting is a common finding. Repeated vomiting can induce gastritis and abdomen pain.
Loss of fluid due to recurrent vomiting can cause a pale color on face. This can happen due to twin pregnancy and is not likely to be a serious issue if the vomiting is controlled. In case it continues then proper medical treatment may be needed.
Simple remedies will help her -
1. Eat home made, fresh, bland food. Avoid spicy, oily , greasy, fried or stale food. Avoid eating outside.
2. Instead of 2 big meals, have 5 - 6 spaced out meals.
3. Take lots of water, buttermilk, coconut water, nimbu pani etc,
4. She can take Sinate - OD tablet, this is needed just once a day, early in the morning, it will help her nausea.
5. She can take Pantop - D tablet twice a day to combat the acidity.
6. Before sleeping, take a glass of chilled milk at night.
7. Sleep with pillows propping up the head at night.
8. After any meal, avoid lying down or sleeping for atleast 2 hours.
9. Avoid stress or worrying, as it compounds the acidity.
10. She can add simple items like lemon,cinnamom, ketchup to the food instead of chillies and spices to alter the taste and improve the nausea.

Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
