Does anyone else “vomit” even when their stomach is empty?

Sometimes I’m too nauseas to eat in between puking, and on the second bout of vomiting I will just dry heave and convulse over the bowl. Nothing comes out, except maybe a bit of saliva and some bitter bile, not even water. But I still will be ‘violently’ ill until the feeling subsided. I try to eat/drink after. Is this common for HG? Is there anything you did to cope?

This happened to me most offen if I drank anything, thought about drinking anything, or even rinsed out my mouth after vomiting! Even a drop of water would set me off into horrible dry heaves. Try to avoid eating or drinking for at least 15? 20? minutes after, and eat something small first, then drink another 20 or so minutes later- try not to eat and drink together, it makes it too easy to come back up. Hope you get some relief soon!

Yes it happened to me very often

Oh yea , it's terrible . If i eat i throwup after sometime if i didn't eat after throwing up i again throw up some foam , salty white liquid and every morning bitter bile and I'm 8weeks 4days now I'm already tired of this 😑

Awful, don't miss those days but getting ginger in me helped and also those motion sickness wrist bands. I wore them all day, every day pushing in the pressure points.. It kinda helped along with b6 and meds for nausea...

@Robynn I respect and love that you put HG survivor in your profile. So true

This happened to me so much with my first pregnancy. I was throwing up literally every single hour. I couldn’t even drink water. And any kind of oral medicine to help the nausea would just come right back up. Sometimes all I threw up was left over bile, I had lost so much weight. If you’re in the U.S., please ask about promethazine suppositories. They literally saved me

This happened to me often. Big hugs! Talk to your doctor and keep looking for meds that help.

This happens when I go too long without snacking. I find snacking on something small every couple of hours helps rather than trying to eat meals. Literally a digestive or two if I can manage. X

Yeah!!! I starting bring up my stomach lining and blood as I was violently sick so now I’m on probiotics and meds to repair it

I have this, and it’s so violent at times. Hubby gets scared. It’s caused me to have nosebleeds, vomiting fluro yellow and even then shuddering and dry heaving still violently. I get super hot and start sweating and then get really cold. It sucks

What do you snack often to get.rid of this ?

Same happens to me...foam, bile, water, air... my abs are now hurting because of it!

Oh yeah absolutely more times than actual vomiting but it feels just as awful
