Question about nausea and food..

Hey moms this is my first child that I’m pregnant with i just found out on 10/19/18 that i was pregnant and i should be about 8 weeks today (i haven’t been to the drs yet since I’m out of town). I’ve been so nauseous everyday all day for a little over a week now and the only thing that seems to help is ginger ale and pretzels.. I’ve been hungry but every time i got to eat something that i typically love it just tastes different and i have a hard time eating it. Had this happened to anyone else? What did you do and how did you deal with the nausea? Help please!!
