Good morning,
This is not a good sign. It sounds like a compression leak into the cooling system from a head gasket leak. You will need to have a leak down test performed to see if it is the head gasket.

That is where you inject shop air into the cylinder one at a time and watch for coolant movement in the surge tank.
