Has anyone gotten really bad headaches? I just had a throbbing headache that lasted 24hrs! I’ve never had migraines before and I know headaches can be common in pregnancy, but this was something I’ve never experienced before. With my first child I never had this happen either. I even went to the local drug store to test my blood pressure bc this was unbearable pain and I was really nervous. I’m just wondering if this has happened to anyone else???
I suffered from terrible headaches with my first. I don’t normally get headaches and I believe I had my first bout of migraines during the second trimester. Brutal. My doctor did offer to prescribe something but I never filled it. They eventually eased up. If you’re concerned I would talk to your doctor. This time around hasn’t been that bad. When they creep up I use a cold face mask and most recently I use this cream. Works wonderfully. It also can be used on the feet and legs for swelling. The masseuse I went to for a prenatal massage told me about it. https://www.naturopathica.com/products/mighty_mint_rescue_cream
Awesome, thank you so much...I’m buying this cream. I’m dreading another headache like the one I just had. I’m really hoping it doesn’t happen too often, it was brutal for sure.
Call you doctor and let him/her know about them. They will want to monitor your BP more. Just because you got one good reading doesn't mean you aren't spiking.
I get headaches pretty frequently. My doctor told me to start taking a couple of extra vitamins as well as to drink a sugar soda when I take my Tylenol. The mix has helped, decrease the severity of the headaches.
I was getting them everyday. My Dr. prescribed magnesium oxide 400mg 2x a day and I've only had one since then like 3 Wks ago. It feels good not hurting!
Knock on wood I haven't had one in a couple of weeks, but yes, I was getting them pretty regularly for over a month between first and second tri. One headache/migraine lasted 2 whole days and Tylenol was NOT working. I started going to the chiro more and applying magnesium lotion every day. They seem to have subsided since then. Hope you get some relief soon!
i've had them regularly for what seems like a few months now. Just enough to be annoying and border on affecting how I work. I'm going to add magnesium in and see if that helps
