The only way i see that happening is if your body is fulfilling its own desire for a baby through a psychosomatic pregnancy, in other words your body feigns a pregnancy with all the symptoms that go with it.

My mom thinks its just nerves cuz I'm in the middle of a transition, and i don't deal well with change. So perhaps it's nothing to worry about.

If you're constipated it could be a real-estate issue. One of my kids was just barfing out of the blue several mornings a week for a while so we took her to the doctor, and it turned out she wasn't pooping regularly so there just wasn't enough room in her guts for digestion to happen so her body was rejecting whatever was stuck in her upper GI tract all night.

I've narrowed down my stomach problems to either wheat or dairy. I get really gasey and feel like i'm gonna throw up after drinking milk, but i also consume wheat when i consume dairy and though i think the gassiness from the dairy should have stopped now, my stomach is still messed up. I don't want to give up wheat and dairy. I need to go to a food allergist, because i think it's something I'm eating. I dunno i could be wrong.and I honestly wasn't having a lot of lower gi problems until i bought a ton of wheat and dairy at the store. it's really bad gas and having to take a sloppy dump about every 15 minutes. it's not fun.

so you want me to give birth to satan. WOuldn't the mother of the spawn of satan be a total harlot? since it's the opposite of the son of god?

Actually, I think the mother of the anti-christ is probably a man. That's more opposite than merely being promiscuous. So, Junior is the Antichrists's Bible.

My first response was to make a joke about being hungover, but usually I've just experienced that as feeling stupid.

Are you drinking enough water? Apparently, dehydration can cause a nauseous feeling.

Perhaps you have something in your diet that doesn't agree with you.

I've cut back on milk and cheese which seems to help my colon work better (along with vegetables). Certainly, it has made me less farty. I appear to be mildly lactose intolerant, I suppose. I don't know what could be causing nausea, but maybe it's something like that.

This is what I pulled up from the socialist NIH website:

Many common problems may cause nausea and vomiting:
Food allergies
Infections of the stomach or bowels, such as the "stomach flu" or food poisoning
Leaking of stomach contents (food or liquid) upwards (also called gastroesophageal reflux or GERD)
Medications or medical treatments, such as cancer chemotherapy or radiation treatment
Migraine headaches
Morning sickness during pregnancy
Seasickness or motion sickness
Severe pain, such as with kidney stones

There are more severe things listed that it's better to not go into. No need to enable Munchausen syndrome. (And no, it doesn't involve Uma Thurman as Venus.)

As it turns out, I had had a little bit of a scare not too long ago. I started having nausea regularly in the mornings for about two or three weeks roughly about the time one would start getting morning sickness if they were pregnant. Happened to be my body not responding well to a probiotic that I'd started taking around that time. Stopped taking the probiotics and poof! All better. :)

i wish i was taking some supplement around the time, but i switched things around and yes taking the milk out helped with the gas problem and lower gi problems, but still having problems with upper.what i meant to say i'm glad it was something simple for you

Purple, I saw you said it might be wheat. Have you tried going off wheat? It's in everything it seems, but I went off it and found out I'm reeaallly allergic. (I lost about 10 pounds in two weeks, just to show how allergic I am). Being allergic to gluten in particular has apparently become very common. :shrug: It makes me really sick if I eat it now.

i'm wondering if the puking,s not psychological in nature, because it's not every day. but could a wheat allergy be like that?

My friend with celiac disease reported a lot of gastrointestinal problems. I don't remember him mentioning puking, but I do remember constant diarrhea.

Yes, that can happen. Would it be hard to give it up for two weeks and then try a little and see if you are affected? It can sometimes take a day or two for symptoms to manifest. If you do want to give it up, you have to read food labels carefully. Or just eat fresh food like vegetables, fruit and meat and you should be ok.

Go off gluten and dairy. Food sensitivities can really manifest themselves in a ton of different ways. It seems hard to do, but life gets so much better that you wouldn't want to go back. You don't have to do both at once, but those are two of the most common ones right now.

Then get checked for h pyloris bacteria. It is a kind of bacteria that is spiral shaped and worms its way into your stomach lining and can cause all kinds of havoc, including gastric problems, vomiting, reflux, sinus issues, skin problems, migraines, depression/anxiety, hormonal imbalance, fatigue, poor immune response, extreme cravings for alcohol and sugar, yeast overgrowth and adrenal fatigue. Many people in population contract it (40-80%). For many, no symptoms manifest and the body can fight it off, but for some it causes real problems and can be deadly. Antiobiotics are becoming increasingly ineffective in treating it, but there are several natural medicines that seem to eradicate it effectively. Several stool samples are needed to properly diagnose it.

Other possibilities with similar symptoms are celiac disease, yeast overgrowth, parasites, or other bacteria like C Difficile, Ulcers, IBS, or Crohn's disease.

Often when there is an imbalance of good bacteria to bad bacteria in your stomach symptoms similar to this occur (antibiotics wipe out all the stuff, regardless of good or bad, so if you've had a few bouts of that throughout your life, you could be susceptible). Try a good probiotic and cut back on sugary stuff.
