Is this morning sickness?!!

[filipenko32]

I'm 5 weeks and 3 days pregnant and just found something else to worry about!! For the past 4 days or so I have been dry retching / heaving several times a day. I *think* I feel nausea because I get shivery, my mouth waters and then I retch 4-5 times in one go. This happens up to 5 times a day and is much much worse if I move around. I definitely have food and smell aversions too. The sickness is not in my stomach it's more in my upper chest area which seems to trigger the retching. As yet I've never actually ever vomited anything up from my stomach. It's almost like the retching impulse you get if you've just smelt something truly disgusting. I definitely have a very poor appetite at the moment too and heartburn has appeared several times. Did anyone else have this kind of retching, is this normal!!? Thanks so much!

The heaving comes from my stomach but the sensation is mainly in my upper chest and then mouth waters and then...!

Yep that is what I have too. The sickness seems be in my upper chest and throat and I have it all day long. I have only thrown up twice (once was this morning) and both times I had nothing in my tummy but horrid acid. I also retched a few times and cause of that I burst a blood vessel under my eye. The mouth watering thing is familiar too. Actually I feel just as when I get car sick. And this started at about the same time as with you too. So welcome to the not so nice aspect of being preggo!
