Sounds like you either have indigestion or heartburn, which is quite common. I am in 15 weeks. Since 10 weeks, I always feel this icy feel at my throat and feels like food is not moving down my throat, instead feels like it’s coming up. Told my gynae at one of the appt and was prescribed antacids to take before bed. It really helps. Another way is to drink cold milk as it lines the throat/esophagus to prevent heartburn.
