What Causes Vomiting During Third Trimester?

Hi, I am 35 weeks pregnant. The past week I have been vomiting, but it s always really mucus like, thick, clear, except if I have eaten. I feel like I need to clear my throat and once I do, I start a coughing fit and start vommiting. What is the cause? I have tried less liquids, more liquids, small meals, warm lemon tea, peppermint tea, nothing is helping.

Hello.
Thanks for writing.
In thirdtrimester baby is almost more than 2 kg and total uterine cavity volume is 3 ltr and it leads to tremendous back pressure on stomach leading to regurgitation of fluid to esophagus .
This leads to constant feeling of vomiting orreflux disease.
For treatment food to be taken frequently in very small quantities.
If its still continues start tablet ondansetron along with liquid antacids and pantaprazole.
Visit ur gynecologist if it doesn't resolve.
Thanks
