unbearable headaches

scarletangel2006

I have been having horrible headaches the last few days. they run up my neck and behind my eyes. my boyfriend massaged my neck last night and I was doing a little bit better today until I layed down. when I sat back up the debilitating headache came flying back.  I have tried tylonel, I took claritan in case its allergies, and nothing is working.

My doctor told me to call her if I had a bad, persistent headache. I don't actually know why, but that makes it seem serious to me....

Would definitely contact your doc tomorrow just in case and to see what they recommend for relief! Good luck!

Omg I am going through the same thing right now! It started Saturday night and has been most of today. Going to my appt Tuesday :-S haven't tried Tylenol yet because I'm scared to take anything in the first trimester.

Actually I did try a cold compress and that helped a little!

I had terrible headaches my last pregnancy and it was because I was trying to quit drinking caffeine. Have you stopped drinking coffee or tea?

I am getting bad ones because of my sinuses. Are you congested at all? You can try a Netipot, hot showers help me and sometimes McDonald's fries (don't as me why).

I did quit drinking coffee when morning sickness started. I did add back in caffeine and have been fine with the small amount. I called my midwife and they said 1000 mg of tylonel and to try and wait it out. if it doesn't get better I can have an apt before my normal one on Monday to make sure everything is alright. right now I am feeling alittle better but I still don't feel well. my head hurts but its not the grab my head and cry curled up in a ball hiding in the dark it was last night. unfortunately migraines and pregnancy seem to go hand in hand with me. I had one last 6 weeks with my son. finally took a neurologist putting me on prednisone to make it feel a little better before.

My doctor mentioned some women suffer from vascular migraines during pregnancy this morning at my apt. I had discussed with her some of the headaches I have been getting. This last weekend, I became extremely sensitive to light, had splotchy vision, and then began to get a decent sized headache. I know it is so scary, so hopefully you can find some relief! I have been keeping the lights in my office low and taking breaks from my computer! This is a new pregnancy symptom for me, definitely did not have headaches with my first. Feel better!!
