My BP dropped from really high to low, really fast. That was the only time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/3#post-2163610 Fri, 01 May 2015 09:15:42 +0000 PrincessBaby 2163610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I threw up with my first while in transition. And I was shaking like crazy.</p> <p>With LO2, I felt nauseated while I was having Contractions from Hell and was waiting on my epi. I asked them for a barf bag bc the pain was making me nauseated, but I never threw up. We had eaten dinner at around 7, when I was having super mild contractions. My labor was so fast, the shit really hit the fan by 830, and I guess it made me nauseated bc I had a full stomach and was in so much pain.</p> <p>I didn't feel anything as far as nausea or shaking during transition with LO2. But it was so fast, maybe that's why. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/3#post-2163574 Fri, 01 May 2015 08:58:03 +0000 Somebunny 2163574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, twice. I'd always heard that women throw up during transition, but I don't think I was quite there yet- I was only at 5 cm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/3#post-2163522 Fri, 01 May 2015 08:21:01 +0000 mediagirl 2163522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. I was not told that was a side effect of labor!!!! Haha.<br /> The nurse was ready for me, though. She was super quick... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163512 Fri, 01 May 2015 08:12:04 +0000 mrsog 2163512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes a few times. I had gotten demerol and I think it was a mix of coming off of it and the contractions getting super intense at the same time. Right after that I got an epi and next time will skip the IV pain meds and go right for the epi. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163500 Fri, 01 May 2015 08:08:44 +0000 blackbird 2163500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: yes! So weird! I seriously think my nurse had some intuition about it because I remember thinking "wow, I didn't even feel bad" :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163493 Fri, 01 May 2015 08:05:24 +0000 youboots 2163493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ajsmommy: yup. I was in labor for 43 hours after an induction. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163474 Fri, 01 May 2015 07:45:47 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2163474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't given birth yet but I know my mom threw up a ton! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163454 Fri, 01 May 2015 07:37:10 +0000 Ajsmommy 2163454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: same, I puked only once though. It was bile. I was induced and it took 2.5 days so I didn't have anything to puke up. Not cool man, not cool... I *think* it was at the ring of fire. I had epi. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163438 Fri, 01 May 2015 07:27:48 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2163438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, but not until after it was all done and I was holding the baby. I asked my husband to take the baby and he just looked at me. Luckily my sister was standing right beside me and she took the baby just before I threw up all over the blanket on my lap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163200 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 22:20:40 +0000 HourThyme 2163200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>what?!?! this is a thing?? I didnt know this.. I have a crazy irrational fear of puking. Pre-pregnancy I had only vomited 3 times since late childhood. I just feel like Im going to lose control and choke.. Ugh.. One more thing to be scared of re:labor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163193 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 22:08:21 +0000 travellingbee 2163193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: I don't remember feeling nauseous either. Just all of a sudden would have to puke. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163187 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 22:01:55 +0000 LomaLinda 2163187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did not throw up during labor. I felt a little nauseous as my labor got going but never felt like I was truly going to throw up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163180 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 21:50:39 +0000 mrsrain 2163180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Twice, both were after my water had broken and I was most likely in transition. Fun times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163172 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 21:46:26 +0000 mamimami 2163172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I puked on my bathroom wall while sitting on the toilet. Must have been transition, when you can't decide which end needs the toilet more. Good times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163096 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 21:08:56 +0000 jape14 2163096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I threw up twice while pushing. Luckily I told my husband it was going to happen and I made it into a bag. I actually threw up more then than in my entire pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163088 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 21:03:58 +0000 plantains 2163088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I puked all the way through, it was awful </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163082 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:59:26 +0000 Mae 2163082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, but it wasn't labor it was the epidural. Right after I got it I felt really nauseous and they gave me some anti-nausea med that worked for a bit then wore off and I puked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163068 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:52:39 +0000 mrsjyw 2163068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep it was all liquid, but def yakked before transition </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163049 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:36:29 +0000 blackbird 2163049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I transitioned, my apple and peanut butter came right up. I didn't even feel nauseous, but a nurse must've known it was coming because she had a bucket ready for me :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163048 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:36:27 +0000 pinkb 2163048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. But I was nauseous during my 2nd labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2163042 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:34:47 +0000 getjazzy 2163042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. Not sure exactly how many cm but it was near transition. I had an epidural because my labour was so long so I asked for a popcycle to try and get some energy from the sugar. Definitely puked shortly after finishing it. I could only stomach water/ice chips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162920 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 19:28:08 +0000 knittylady 2162920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I threw up every time DH kissed my forehead to comfort me. After the third time he realized he should stop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162914 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 19:26:21 +0000 MamaCate 2162914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good luck!</p> <p>I vomited a few times early on, post pitocin but pre epidural. I had no idea it was so common until it happened to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162913 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 19:26:02 +0000 erinpye 2162913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really thought I would, because I vomited the entirety of both pregnancies, but I didn't during either labor/ delivery (both were inductions). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162897 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 19:18:58 +0000 ScarletBegonia 2162897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked this a few days before I went into labour too! Not just out of curiosity though, I'm a huge emetophobic and was more nervous about puking than I was about labour.<br /> You can go back and look for my post but IIRC it was about a 50/50 split on the poll!<br /> For the record - no puking here!!! Although once I was past about 7cm dilated apparently i said I was going to puke on every contraction. I also used the gas once and it made me SO nauseous. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162808 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:26:19 +0000 FaithFertility 2162808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: ohhh my..... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162807 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:25:38 +0000 FaithFertility 2162807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes :( and as luck would have it I ate hot wings that night! AWFUL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162802 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:18:35 +0000 skipra 2162802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my first I did at the first real contractions. I was in the hospital so they gave me a dose of zofran and I was fine through the rest of the labor.<br /> With my second I was never even remotely nauseous. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-vomit-in-labor/page/2#post-2162799 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:15:48 +0000 Tidybee 2162799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good luck!<br /> I puked during transition...during a contraction...as they were making me hold still (hovering over DH) to place the epidural. All of those factors contributed and the nurse barely got the pan on top of DH's head in time. He felt each splash.... </p>
