Default acting like she has a hairball

If she had only done it this morning, I would have thought that she got water in her nose or something when I bathed her, but she also did it yesterday morning....

Anyone else ever experience this with their baby?

BTW, she'll be 15 weeks old tomorrow and weighs about 2.5 lbs. She's supposed to see the vet next Friday, should I go ahead and take her in before that?
Another important note, she only seems to do it in the morning during her nap time. All her blankets are clean and she's been sleeping in this same spot since we brought her home.
Tricksie did that last week during the night, the next morning I was combing her and found thread in her teeth with no end to it. Happened to be a ball of thread that she had swallowed and when I loosened the thread around her teeth she swallowed that. By the time I got to the Vet there was no signs of it but he gave me flavored vaseline so that hopefully she would pass it, well that day she threw it up. Can't imagine where she got it.
Hopefully yours will be simple, let us know.
