Worst night since the hospital

I've been getting this headache the last couple of days now. Last night was torture! I went to bed with a pretty decent one around 11. DS woke up at 12:30, I put him back in his crib, and I had to get up 2 more times to sooth him back to sleep. 4:00 rolls around and my head feels like its in a vice. DS is awake. I nurse and change him, and he WILL NOT go back to sleep! I had to turn off his white noise machine b/c it was killing my head! I finally get him back to sleep at 5:20. 6:15 up agian. I broke down, swaddled him and put him in bed with me. Now I feel like I have a medium size hangover when I didnt even have a drink last night!
No questions really, just a vent.

Re: Worst night since the hospital
It may be sleep deprivation, but I would check your blood pressure, make sure that's not what's causing your headaches.
I'm really sorry too!! It could be anything (lack of sleep catching up on you) but I would check your bp also. I hope you feel better! Try to see if someone can give you a massage- sometimes pressure points in your neck or shoulders can contribute to the headache and I will feel a million times better after even a 5 minute one by my husband.
