Headaches only first thing in the morning???

in Pregnant after IF

So for the past two weeks I've been waking up in the morning with terrible headaches.  I'm drinking plenty of fluids throughout the day (at least 8-8oz glasses of water,  plus milk, juice, soup, etc).  I probably drink about 8 oz in the hour before I  go to bed,

Also in the last two weeks I haven't been getting up in the middle of the night to pee any more, so that has made me happy.  But when I pee first thing in the morning it's pretty bright yellow. 

I've been drinking about 16 oz of water as soon as I get up, and my headache is  gone before I leave for work.

I'm guessing its just morning dehydration?  Its just weird that is the only time I feel that way?  I'm not sure what I should do?  Drink more just before going to bed?  Get up in the middle of the nigght just to get something to drink?

Anyone else have this problem or am I the only weirdo?

Got pregnant on our own without Fertility Treatments - January 2016!  Thank you snow storm Jonas!
EDD 10/15/16
At 20-week anatomy scan found IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Restriction), and very low Amniotic Fluid.  Now, I'm High Risk and have weekly ultrasounds to monitor fluid and growth.  If baby runs out of room or is too growth restricted, they will deliver ASAP.  My current goal is to make it to 28 weeks!

    I tend to have more headaches in the morning but I think mine is due to my sinuses.  I'm not sure about the color of your urine in the AM.  When do you take your PNV?  If you take it before you go to bed it may be because of that.   It sounds like you are getting enough liquids but my doctor always to drink more even when I think I am drinking enough.

    I do take my PNV within an hour of going to bed.  But I've been doing that for the last three years, so I doubt that would cause the headaches. 

    My next drs appt is Feb 20 (2.5 weeks away).  I'll probably ask, but I'm sure she'll just tell me to drink more!  LOL!  The funny thing is, when I was there just 2 weeks ago she asked me if I was getting headaches and I said no.  Then bam, the next day the headaches start.  Go figure!
