3rd Trimester

2 day long headaces suck!

I've had a headache since early yesterday afternoon, and it STILL hasn't gone away. I've tried Tylenol, stretching, and even drinking a little caffine. Nothing worked. Between the headache, and inconsistent contractions, I'm miserable!

  • Those suck - how has your blood pressure been? headaches with high blood pressure is not a good thing

  • BP is normal. For the longest time, I thought I might have preeclampsia, but the OB said that the only way I could have it is if my BP's high. I had ALL of the signs except high BP. All I want is a nap.

  • I have had some pre-e signs and I've been on modified bedrest for the past 8 weeks but my OB told me a few weeks back if I had any kind of headache that I couldn't get rid of to just go to L&D no matter what my BP was.

    I hope things are alright and you feel better soon! Left Hug

  • Sucks! Earlier in my pregnancy I went to a midwife and I was telling her about the horrible constant headaches i was getting-which has since diminished greatly. Anyways, she said something about the concentration of hormones in fat tissues causing the headache and told me to take vitamin B6, so I added that to my prenatals. Not sure it will work, but it doesn't hurt to try. Good luck.

    Thank you! I have B6 at home, so I'll try that. I STILL have the headache & it's SO bad, I threw up   Sad
