I'm about 4 weeks pregnant and I can't stop dry heaving? I guess I should be happy I'm not throwing up. Anyone else dealing with the same thing? Does this sound normal? I didn't experience this with my first pregnancy.

Dry heaving is totally normal. It is throwing up, just without any food in your stomach. I had a spell of dry heaving this morning and I'm 13w5d. It is better than actually bringing food back up, but it seems like your body is never satisfied and keeps trying.

I feel for you. I had them pretty much up until week 11 (I am 12w4d now). I only throw up twice the entire time, but could not eat anything because of dry heaving and nausea that I had all day long. Hang in there, it does get better! I am eat almost anything now (except for meat and fish) and the dry heaving went away!

I'm 8 weeks and i get it every single day, im guessing i have another month of it =/ but when i was about 5 wks i just had bad dry heaving spells all day now i end up dry heaving for a good min then throwing up tummy vile but now its only once a day (literally morning sickness)and not all day... either way it's shitty but you'll get through it!!
