Dry retching making throat sore!

Just checking I'm not alone on this one. I'm 8w and have had nausea since about 5w which is slowly getting worse mostly dry retching with the occasional minor sickness (normally as a result of brushing my teeth). Over the last day I've had a mild sore throat which feels like I've strained it. Given Covid I'm slightly paranoid but have no other symptoms and I've been retching/sickness for a couple of weeks now, yesterday definitely being the worst yet.

Anyone else had this? Covid adds in something else to worry about so looking for some reassurance that this is normal!

No - I’ve also had dry retching for the last couple of days and have a sore throat/itchy chest type feeling which I am putting down to the dry retching every time I smell or see something I can’t stomach atm! I’m 6 weeks today and this started a few days ago for me but seems to be slowly getting worse everyday. You’re not alone, don’t worry!

@PippityChippity sorry to hear you have it too but glad I'm not alone!

Yesterday was grim, everything and anything was setting me off but trying to remind myself that my symptoms seem to be pretty 'textbook' so far. Hopefully all good signs Smile
