Headaches

I am just over 31 weeks and have been getting headaches like you can't imagine.  I never really had headaches/migraines before but these are kicking my butt.  I finally slept last night with only one pee break! (Miracle in itself.) But I went to bed with a massive headache and up with the same thing.  I have taken Tylenol, but that doesn't even seem to take the edge off of this.  Any other suggestions?

I have tried some relaxation things - bath before bed, reading, etc.  Those dont help.  I just want my dark bed room with all my pillows and complete silence.  So that I can just "deal" with them. 

TIA

    I these with both boys and nothing helped.  I was in the second trimester.  They just eventually went away.  Some people say caffeine helps, but It didn't help me.

    Have you checked your blood pressure?  You might want to make sure it is not high.

    I was getting headaches when my BP went up, but if I laid on my side it helped my BP and headaches.

    I had awful headaches throughout my entire pregnancy. Caffeine did help some, especially if I had tea or coke first thing in the morning.

    If you haven't discussed these headaches with your OB, then please do so NOW!   Although headaches can be normal in a pregnancy, they can also be signs of very serious problems and should not be overlooked.

    Promise to talk to the OB.  I just started getting these headaches this week.  So I am not sure what is going on.  Will call if this headache last any longer...

    THANK YOU!!

    Definitely check your BP.  When I got to L&D with leaking fluid, they found my BP was high and kept asking if I had a headache (which I didn't).

    I'd also try to have a little caffeine and see how it helps.  Of course, I think my headaches were from caffeine withdrawal :)
