Increased saliva!!

Hello, I'm new to this group.
I'm currently 18 + 4 I had really bad nausea from around 6-16 weeks, which seems to have improved a lot, but over the past few weeks iv started getting copeus amounts of saliva in my mouth, like literally it just fills constantly. It makes me feel really sick to keep gulping it down so I sometimes spit it into tissues but I'm getting a really sore mouth from constantly holding tissues to it.
I have tried brushing my teeth, gum, ice cubes etc, but this hasn't helped. Can I ask has any one had this and for how long, and did anything help?
I keep reading that hypersalivation is common and usually subsides after first trimester, but I am well into second trimester and it seems to be getting worse. It's really getting me down. If I knew that it might subside at some point that would give me some hope also.
Many thanks.
