Gagging but no nausea?!

so I’m now 14 weeks pregnant and although I’ve felt a bit nauseous (mild hangover type feeling) Ive not actually been sick. The nausea seemed to stop last week but now I just keep Randomly gagging as if something has hit the back of my throat?! I don’t feel sick and I don’t feel like I’ll be sick but I just keep gagging and wrenching with no warning. There doesn’t seem to be a trigger, strong smells/bad smells/no smells/anything! It happened while I was cycling home from work for the whole 20 minutes and gave me a major headache by the time I got home. Am I a total freak? Is this normal? Is there a way to make it stop?!

Yes it's normal! Most likely caused by a change in hormones.

Don't stay hungry, easy small meals, stay hydrated ( I hated water but loved juice and watery fruits)

Thank you! It doesn’t tend to be if hungry or not but maybe drinking more will help

I was never physically sick but I was forever running to the toilet n heaving thinking I was gonna be sick. Nothing ever triggered it but it was usually in the morning and at night. It's totally normal 😁! Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy! X
