Nausea can be associated with the stimulation of the vagus nerve. So try not to bear down forcefully when you have a BM as it would stimulate the vagus nerve and would make you nauseous.

Email Johns Hopkins University has just patented a new device for relief from nausea. In the patent, Dr. Ronald Lesser, MD and Dr. Robert Webber, PhD propose a system that could help pregnant women cope with nausea without using drugs that could endanger the health of the fetus, among other uses.
A small metal rod wrapped in a metallic coil is inserted beneath the skin on a patient's neck, close to the vagus nerve.
When current is run through a similar coil held outside the neck, the induced current in the inserted rod should stimulate the vagus nerve and disrupt the sense of nausea felt by a patient

Vagus Nerve Stimulation. This procedure is similar to deep brain stimulation, but the generator is implanted in the chest and the wire is connected to the vagus nerve in the neck. In a 2005 clinical trial of six patients, vagus nerve stimulation helped improve cluster or migraine headache in five patients. One patient had severe nausea.

Normal. My husband has this problem also. At times, he has, well, not really vomited, but spit up a bit. His stomach gets queasy sometimes at the same time. For some reason, he gets more acidic when he goes? The acid/phlem in his stomach makes him ill. It can happen at any time, but doesn't happen every time.

as long as the nausea goes away, I wouldn't be worried. But if it lasts even after having a BM I would see your doctor and get a GI consult to find out what's going on.
