First intense nausea this morning (5w3d)

According to last ovulation (not taking LMP as a starting point as I have long cycles) I’m 5w3d today. Woke up fine, some boob soreness but otherwise feeling good. I’ve had some very mild queasiness on some mornings and throughout the day when I’m getting hungry, but nothing I could call actually feeling sick. Well… this morning I experienced my first full blown nausea episode. I’m talking room spinning, cold sweat, unable to continue doing activities and when I looked in the mirror, my face was as pale as a sheet. I had to splash cold water in my face and sit down with my eyes closed for several minutes before I started feeling better. This makes me realize I’ve been very lucky so far to not have felt much and also terrified for the coming weeks and months (I’m a teacher who just returned from summer vacation and students are coming back in next week). I’m thinking I should maybe let my mentor at work know what’s going on in case I ever need to tap out of a lesson to go vomit. 😬
