Waaayyy TMI but I have a M/S question

[maisiedotes]

I have had morning sickness pretty bad the past few days. WARNING: this is gross and graphic.

My vomit has been very... well, dry. Not dry heaving, but like there is no liquid in it- it is like very stiff oatmeal. Just chewed up food and no liquid. I have been drinking lots of fluids and urinating normally. I am a little worried about this. My appt with my doctor is not until next week. Has anyone been through this?

[Ackray]

I wouldn't worry about it. Try and drink extra fluids.

I haven't been through what you describe, but wanted to send a and wishes for a quick passing of the m/s.

I think I remember this with my first son. I was pretty dry all the time because I vomitted SO much. Maybe that's it. No matter what you drink, maybe you're dry??

Anyway, my vomit would come up in clumps and was tough to expel. Do yourself a favor and stay away from carrots when you know you'll be vomitting... they HURT coming up.

Also, don't eat lettuce if you know you will be vomitting.. Mom and I both remember that being some of the most vile vomit ever.

I'm a dry heaver,, so on the rare occasion that "something" does come up it is as you describe and NO fun at all,, liquid puke is SO much easier to get up.. totally agreement on teh carrot/ lettuce thing, acidic stuff is rough too,, tomato sauce ack!

Woah, Gina. You hit the nail on the head with the lettuce. I had a veggie burger last night and man oh man. The whole experience has turned me off of veggie burgers completely.

I am going to talk to ny OB on Wednesday to see what she says. I just wish it didn't hurt so much! Honestly, I don't know what is worse- barfing up water, dry heaving, or vomiting this dry stuff. aargh.

Thanks for your input!

I did. I did. I was craving chips and ate my way through most of a bag... even though I felt well-hydrated (I'm one of those people who even non-pregnant have a water bottle with me at all times!)... it was dry and almost like something a dog would barf up. It soaked up the water in the toilet!!! I was freaked out. I wonder if the chips had soaked up all my juices??

It's the first time mine has been like that though... I hope this phase ends soon. It's really driving me CRAZY!

I've found that strange things happen when I've eaten well and the last food I had was "offensive" and only that one thing needs to come out.

No peanuts either!
