Dry heaving

paigelisee

Hi... i am Currently 15 weeks pregnant and I get headaches everyday and nothing works to get rid of them. Today i broke down and bought Tylenol extra stength to try se if it would help.. it only worked for about a half hour once it kicked in. Shortly after i went to the bathroom and i started to dry heave. I had my breakfast, and toom the pills on a full stomach.
I left work early from not feeling good. I slept majority of the day and its not helping. I had chicken soup and no help.
tried to sip on a slushy for my headache and no help.
Question is... could it be a reaction to the Tylenol? Any suggestions on what to do?
I havent called my doctor yet either.

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well. My doctor has said that Tylenol is safe to take during pregnancy. It sounds like you could be having a severe headache or migraine, which can cause dry heaving/vomiting. I don't think anyone here could tell you exactly what is causing this reaction for you, but if you are concerned you should probably contact your doctor.

Edit: would also recommend sipping some water!
