Laboring presently, and one of my support partners is curious how common it is. Now I'm curious too! Multiple votes enabled for multiple labors.
-
I puked in the bushes outside the hospital entrance. #classy
-
Twice!
-
At no point did I remotely feel like. Vomiting. But I had an epidural . Maybe that helps.
-
Surprisingly no, though I felt like I might a few times.
-
No but I felt like it. Should have known that I was in transition!
-
Oh yeah...multiple times. I clearly don't handle pain well.
-
Many times.
-
No. I was a little nauseous, and they but some zofran in my iv.
-
Ya, during my induction for LO 1
-
Quite a few times during transition. And I had pasta the night before... it was gross.
-
@lilyofthewest: A LOT. Like...I had an assembly line of support people with buckets a lot. It was bad. But the birght side is the nurse told me it helps to move baby down the birth canal.
Good look with your labor! How exciting!!!
-
Nope, never felt nauseous or anything.
With labor #2, I was hungry!
-
First off, wishing you a quick and smooth delivery!!!
Secondly, nope. But I was induced and had an epidural.
-
I did not. Towards the end I felt like I might and told the midwife, who smiled and said, that's a great sign! I told her she was weird.
Eta: unmedicated labor and delivery
Good luck!!
-
Nope and never felt nauseous either. I don't really ever vomit though.
Good luck!!!
-
Nope, but I thought I was going to several times
-
I felt like I was going to 3x and puked once or maybe twice. It was all bile. I was induced.
-
Yes, multiple times. But at the time, that was really the least of my concerns! Good luck
-
I was induced, had an epidural. I puked once, probably around when I would have been in transition (not that I could feel it thought). The doctor came in shortly after and I was fully dialated.
-
I had an induction and an epidural both times. No nausea or vomiting with #1, but with #2 I vomited at transition and repeatedly after delivery. I was super happy but I still had to keep handing the baby over so I could puke.
I hope your labor is going well!
-
Multiple times, both before and after the epi.
-
Yep, with both girls
-
The first I did. Just bile. The L&D nurse kept shoving the bag under my face. I think I threw up on her instead. I didn't feel bad about it.
The second time I vomited (in a bed pan) a few minutes after the MW broke my water. I was like "please tell me this is transition!"
It kinda sucks because voniting is never fun, but on the other hand it felt so good to a) know I was in transition and b) just get it out!
Good luck!
-
@LC: oh right- that's why they said it was a good sign- I was probably in transition. I asked about an epidural shortly after but they checked me and confirmed I was at a 9 so I was able to power through.
-
i puked at home in the sink while laboring at home and i thought, OH CRAP! i'm probably in transition and i yelled at my DH that we needed to go to the hospital. when we got there, i was checked and was a 9!
-
@lilyofthewest: So exciting!
Never felt the nauseous!
-
Nope, not with any of my three. I was induced with the first 2 and had an epi with all 3.
-
Yes, during the labor for which I was induced with pitocin, I vomited multiple times.
I didn't vomit during my second, med-free labor, but it was much easier.
-
I didn't puke but man I was miserable with nausea.
-
Yup, It's a good think I grabbed some plastic bags on the way out the door to the hospital. We couldn't quite pull over on the freeway fast enough...
-
So many times!
-
Nope. But I also stopped eating and drinking for those few days.
-
Hmm I was going to say no but now that I think about it, I did puke a little during labor with my firstborn. I get queasy easily and the initial meds from induction threw me off. It wasn't full on crazy vomiting but still gross!
-
Nope, I never felt nauseous at all.
-
Just once as I started transition
-
Nope.
-
I wasn't allowed food or water leading up, so technically I didn't vomit, but definitely some dry heaving.
-
Good luck mama! You've got this!!
I puked a ton. Like, puked my guts out until I was delirious. It was my fault because I begged for something to eat and my dr said since nothing was happening (at hour 14 of my induction) I could eat. They told me to go slow but I wolfed down a ton of juice, jello and chicken broth because I was a starving person. It was the best meal of my life, right up until I was puking it everywhere, right as I was trying to get an epidural. Maybe that's why my epidural failed? Then I was complete a couple hours later and continued to throw up intermittently throughout the next 4.5 hrs of pushing. When I was actually (finally) pushing her out, I was throwing up and pushing simultaneously. Basically I was the hottest mess you could ever imagine. But hey, still worth it.

Good luck! I did during transition, good news is labor actually got easier shortly thereafter!
