Morning sickness- maybe TMI

Stategrl522

Just wanted to see if there is anyone out there that this is happening to in addition to me...I am a little over 9 weeks along and my morning sickness basically consists of getting sick first thing in the morning after I wake up and start moving around the house.  Each time I get sick it is mostly clear liquid and bile since I have an empty stomach at that time of the day (I try eating something and drinking water before bed, but the vomit still only consists of liquid).  After that point I just feel slightly nauseous throughout the day but do not get sick.  At my first appt last week I told my doctor this & she said it is perfectly normal to just be sick and it be stomach acids.  Today I had my normal morning routine and at one of the last wretches of getting sick there was some blood streaked in the bile.  I am of course going to call the doctor when they open but wanted to see if anyone else has experienced it.  Of course I googled it and it sounds like it is just from my esophagus from getting sick everyday and doesn't sound like anything abnormal, but wanted to see if there are any fellow bumpies out there who have gone through this.  Thank you for your time & hope everyone is having a happy & healthy pregnancy!

Blood is not normal... Call your doc as soon as you can!

This is exactly what happens to me most mornings.  I experienced it during my first pregnancy as well.  I don't think it's anything too serious, as long as you're not throwing up large amounts of blood.  Hormonal changes during pregnancy can cause your mucousy membranes to be more sensitive and prone to bleeding when irritated.  But definitely call your doctor if concerned.

definitely call your doctor any time there is blood... but i'm sure it's possible it's just from irritation or tearing from constant puking.  have you tried keeping some crackers or something by your bed and eating before you get out of bed?  i'm just starting to get nauseous and i find it's worst when i let my stomach get empty.  if i eat a cracker or two before i get out of bed it seems to help.

I'm not a Dr. but I would say this is totally normal. I am one of the lucky ones that is throwing up all the time too, just got done puking again a little bit ago lol, and every time I do there is some blood in it. Not at all a large amount, but enough that I  can see it, and after I am done and just spit a few times - gross I know - there is some blood then too. I am sure it's just from the strain that comes with puking. If it was a lot I would say to definitely talk to your doctor, but if it's just a little while you are puking I would say it's nothing to be worried about. I hope you start feeling better soon!

Thank you all for your comments! I spoke to my doctor and they said it was probably just from the irritation from throwing up bile the past few days.  This morning I ate a couple of saltine crackers & drank some water while still in the bed.  While I did get sick (becoming part of my normal morning routine) it was the crackers and the water so it did help the process a little more. Thank you for reading my TMI post & for your advice!!!
