That can happen when you are in labor or going into labor. Your body is going into expelling mode and everything just comes out, including baby!  Maybe call your doctor if you are losing some of your plug. Pregnant moms can dehydrate really fast and that cause contractions too. Take care!

Oh no! You sound just miserable :( I hope it changes for you soon! Keep drinking, hopefully a little is staying down. Look up natural Gatorade recipe,  I have heard that can help plus you don't get all the sugar like regular Gatorade. I really feel for you, rest momma!
