Did anyone experience this?

I am 14 weeks with twins and I have been experiencing throbbing headaches, and its not only throbbing in my head, but in my hands also.  It started about two days ago and has been off and on.  It really didn't start to worry me till I called to asked my dr. about it and she just told me to go in to the office tomorrow so she could check me out.  Did anyone or has anyone been experiencing this at all and is it something to worry about????? I'm freakin out a little bit....

well i did notice around that time my heart racing whihc is common in twins (heart pumping a lot of blood) this might give you a head ache?  My wrists killed me most of my pregnancy and for a while afterwards.  I found recently my joints dont hurt as much like they are finally starting to go back to normal.  your ligaments will get stretchy during your pregnancy to allow you hips to spread so u will notice pain in joints like hips, wrist ankels etc. 

see what the doc says

I had occassional headaches when pg too, but I was prone to them pre-pregnancy. Your doctor probably wants to check your BP. Its a good thing your doc is taking your complaint seriously and wants to check you out.

I had wrist pain also. It then progressed to my hands and fingers. It got worse as then pregnancy progressed and was similar to carpal tunnel syndrome. It got so bad that I couldn't hold a fork without being in pain and had to give my hands numerous breaks during a meal. I wasn't able to write at all. Once I delivered the babies, it took a long time to resolve. Cupping my breasts in order to BF continued to aggravate it and delayed healing. Eventually it got much better and now is *almost* normal.

weird, but my migraines went away during pregnancy, but my wrists killed me. Never asked the doctor what it was because i just figured it was from being on the computer so much (i was on bedrest).
