Suggest Treatment For Severe Nausea During 38 Weeks Of Pregnancy

I am 38 weeks pregnant and for some reason every time I go to sleep I end up getting this foamy vomit that comes up a little and gets in my lungs, then I end up puking the foam. But I drink water around the time. Also I take a nausea pill about an hour before bed and I don't even feel sick I feel fine before it happens

The nausea & frothy motions you have at 38th week of pregnancy seem to be due to-
- Digestive deficiency caused hormonal changes in pregnancy along with poor movements of intestines lack of space to intestines,( the abdomen is occupied by fetus) along with . This may suggest it to be time to enter labor.
- Nausea along with frothy dischrge through anus - indicates bowel infection- should be treated by good hydration & suitable antibiotics advised by your doctor.
- Nausea with giddiness/ vision problems/swelling over legs, face along with urine problem--may indicate pre eclamsia. This should be investigated ( BP & urine albumin test) followed by specific treatment under a gynecologist.
