Nauseous in the middle of the night

Hello! My gastric bypass was exactly 2 months ago on June 3rd. I have been doing well, sticking to my diet and taking my Vitamins. Last night (morning) about 2am I woke up feeling like I was seconds away from throwing up. This has never happened to me before so I was curious if anyone else has had this happen. I have almost thrown up twice due to eating too fast but have managed to keep everything down so far. I ate dinner around 5:30ish with nothing after that so why 2am would this happen?

Did you feel gassy or out of sorts at all? Im about two months out also and i had nausea, some vomiting, and a gassy feeling in the middle of the night. Went to the ER and apparently i have a sludgy gallbladder.

When I eat a meal just before bedtime, I find that the digestive system does't work well. The meal sits heavy in my stomach and I wake up wanting to vomit. Apparently vertical is better than horizontal. So I get up in the middle of the night and read my emails or watch TV for a couple hours until the feeling goes away. Anyways I try and make it a point to not eat immediately before bedtime. I have to give it a couple hours to settle.

My last meal was at 5:30 and I didn't eat anything after that. That's what I thought was kinda weird. I wasn't feeling weird or anything either. Maybe it was just a random thing. It hasn't happened again but I will call the doc if it does.

Well if it is a one-time thing, probably not to worry.
