Hunger = Horrible Headache

Is anyone suffering from horrible headache whenever they are hungry? I think this is my problem but I haven't solved it yet. So the past three mornings I have gotten up with migrane like headaches. (senitive to light, sounds, movement) Plus right before lunch like as I am making way to get lunch I get the same type of headache again. They are so painful and I hate to keep popping Tylenol everyday but it seem like this seems to be a constant this past three days. I am about 15 weeks along.

 

Thanks ladies!

  • Oh yes! Pregnancy does crazy things to your blood sugar level, and I start getting a BAD headache if my blood sugar drops too low.

    My office did a complimentaly blood lipid and blood sugar test a week ago. You were supposed to fast for 12 hours beforehand but they told me not too b/c of the pregnancy. So, I had breakfast, and a mid-morning snack, and then right before lunch did the blood draw. Even so, my blood sugar came out low (compared to folks who fasted 12 hours). Crazy!

  • I am getting wicked wicked headaches but can't figure out if it's the weather (we get warm fronts in our area that can increase temps by 30 degrees in one day, although its never affected me before that could be the culprit) or low blood sugar, so I just make sure I eat something small every 2 hours - healthy of course!
