This is kind of a wierd question but I just have to ask it. I'm 7 weeks pregnant and I thought I was going to get through this pregnancy without morning sickness since I hadn't gotten sick yet. Well this morning I woke up and I was totally wrong. I only reached the sink and started to vomit. Well my vomit was this bright yellow color. Is that normal. I hadn't eaten anything yet so there was nothing to vomit so it was just this thick bright yellow stuff. I had this in my first pregnancy too but I was just wondering if it is normal and do other pregnant women vomit bright yellow or even a greenish color? What is it?

What's bile?
2006-10-19 08:46:09 · update #1
It is bile, which is a digestive juice that just sits in your stomach when it is empty. It is normal anytime you vomit on an empty stomach. I actually vomitted so violently during my 1st pregnancy that I broke a little blood vessel and out came a couple of tablespoons of blood...and the Doctor said even that is no big deal. Congratulations re the pregnancy and my sympathies re the nausea.

I have hyperemesis gravidarum. I don't vomit every few hours, I vomit every hour on the hour. I have vomited every color and texture you could possibly think of. The yellow might be bile, since you said you hadn't eaten. Try eating something with ginger, and if you just can't stomach that then there are ginger capsules you can take. And if you go 24 hours without keeping anything down (solids or liquids) go to the hospital right away.
I hope you feel better.

Never green, but yellow once. I had an empty stomach too, the only thing in there was a vitamin. It came out yellowish. Usually when my stomach is empty I just vomit saliva and water.
Maybe the color is due to something you had the night before that didn't quite digest all the way.

This is stomach bile. If you haven't eaten anything, then it is the only thing in your stomach.
Edited to add:
Bile is the acid that is produced by your body that is secreted into your stomach to break down the food that you eat so it can be digested.

If you haven't eaten anything it is normal that the vomit is yellow because it is all the acid in your stomach

sounds like stomach acid, if you havent eaten anything, that is all there is to throw up. It is normal but you could also talk to your doc. if needed. Congrats on your pregnancy and good luck!

Since you had it before I would think it is normal
Probably so....
Well really I have to be honest here and say that I don't know. I have never heard of this.....
But everyone is different.

it's your stomach lining because you haven't eaten try a little cookie or toast as soon as you wake
