What Is The Reason For Sudden Throwing Up When Pregnant?
Hi, I'm 16 and almost 8 months pregnant. I just woke up this morning and went to the bathroom. I pooped. Then after that i started throwing up and i had some streaks and dots of blood in the puke and my pee was clear, and i threw up again and it looked like i threw up a lot of mucus. Is there an explanation for this? :(

Hi, I understand your concern. In 8th month of pregnancyuterus occupies most of abdominal cavity, leaving very less space for intestines to move.. which have slow activity due to pregnancy hormones. As a result there is digestive deficiency ,gastritis . This has given rise to bouts of vomitting in your case. The blood dots & streaks in motion suggest undigested food/ dry hard stool causing small bleeding from anal region Or a secondary infection of intestines. You should start taking plenty of liquid including ORT .. in case vomiting is controlled / if it is not you should visit ER for fluid replacement. Consult your treating doctor for your stool problem ( in case it is repetitive) With specific medication .Alsostart taking- Frequent & small serving of food to allow good digestion. Sufficient fibers & water in diet help clearing of bowels & thus help to recover from digestive deficiency. Regular walking/ yoga exercises help digestion. Thanks.
