Only towards the end though, all the pushing gave me a lot of acid build up in my chest. prettylizy on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor/page/2#post-453260 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 10:43:17 +0000 prettylizy 453260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, 3 times I think? Not fun because one of the times I was sitting on the toilet at the time (isn't labour sexy?) and didn't have anywhere to go with it :S God bless DH for being so understanding.

And then I threw up once. I had only had a couple of popsicles in the preceding hours so once I got that out of me, I felt fine and the shaking stopped...Then I was ready to push!

I drank my OJ too fast and threw up on my husband. Oops!

It was pretty intense but I was fine after that.

When I was in labor, I was more facing the issue of waddling to the bathroom to address issues at the other end. Split my time between the toilet and the exercise ball - ugh.

It was red jello. I ate it, then it came right back up. Same with the red Gatorade I had brought with me. After that, I resigned myself to being hungry and went back to water only. mrs. wagon on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-453021 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 08:47:15 +0000 mrs. wagon 453021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I threw up during transition when my second epidural wore off. Since I hadn't eaten anything in 24 hours, it was dryheaving. That was the worst! Second time around I didn't throw up at all. And I ate lunch while on pitocin (before the epidural)! I started pitocin (induction) at 10:30am, ate lunch at noon, and got my epidural around 4 or 5pm.

Horrible feeling, I hate throwing up DillonLion on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452995 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 08:31:38 +0000 DillonLion 452995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope.

Once I was in active labor no as long as I didn't lay flat on my back. I was good as long as I was allowed to stay upright or on my side. heffalump on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452977 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 08:16:06 +0000 heffalump 452977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No. Throwing up is a migraine trigger for me so I'm soooooo glad I didn't. mrsjyw on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452967 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 08:05:01 +0000 mrsjyw 452967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep in the am after sleeping for a cpl hours after my epi kicked in... as I was in the last hour of labor. Was all water... hilsy85 on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452966 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 08:04:19 +0000 hilsy85 452966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope and didn't feel the urge to at all. mediagirl on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452965 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 08:03:41 +0000 mediagirl 452965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes. Before I got my epidural but while I was waiting for it - they were taking forever getting to me!! I was probably around 6cm dilated. Just puked once, though. Made it into the bucket, too! :) T.H.O.U. on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452960 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 07:56:41 +0000 T.H.O.U. 452960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No and I am usually one to throw up easily. I was really surprised but I got the epi before things got really bad. LemonLong on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452934 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 07:15:50 +0000 LemonLong 452934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, but once I got my epi I was all better! sorrycharlie on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452918 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 06:12:17 +0000 sorrycharlie 452918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope, and I threw up almost daily my entire pregnancy!

I never even knew women did that until HB! I hope I won't throw up with #2 either! Beebug on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452912 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 05:25:10 +0000 Beebug 452912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Pre-epi 9-10pm (had her just before 8am next day) I was throwing up (sometime only dry heaving) through each contraction. mamimami on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452909 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 05:08:30 +0000 mamimami 452909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ With my first I threw up right before we went to the hospital, so I was probably in transition as I was 9 when we arrived. The second time I felt for sure I was going to but I did my best to "hold it" since we were in the elevator going up to l&d and it was kind of a bad time lol. But yes I've heard it's a good sign when your sphincters start to open hahaha BelugaBean on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452884 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 04:03:56 +0000 BelugaBean 452884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope, I never even felt like I needed too because of the contractions. I almost did afterward though every time they were pushing down to try to get blood clots to come out. I was so hungry but they said if it made me feel sick when they did that, to slow down with eating. I never did throw up though. Tidybee on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452875 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 03:44:38 +0000 Tidybee 452875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes! Only once though. It was as they we're putting the epidural in and I was 8 cm so most likely in transition. Thankfully I made it into te basin. Because I was leaning over DH for the doc to put te epidural in, the basin was put right on top of DH's head! Thankfully I made it in time!

I was about 5cm along and felt so much better afterwards!

Poor hubby had to bring me the bowl (and take it away) Sweet T on "Did you throw up while you were in labor?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-throw-up-while-you-were-in-labor#post-452864 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 03:09:56 +0000 Sweet T 452864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I was so thankful that I didn't!

Everytime I pushed I was pushing so hard.
