Migraines for almost two months!

I've only had one other migraine in my life...and that was a year and a half ago. This is my third pregnancy, and I've been having AWFUL migraines. They started in my 1st trimester and are now in the 2nd trimester. They're AWFUL. I don't like to take medicine, so I haven't taken anything. I've seen a chiro at least a dozen times and just had acupuncture for the first time yesterday which provided temporary relief. Sometimes it's gone for several days and I think I'm home-free! But then it always returns. My BP is fine. 
Any ideas? My Ob-GYN just told me to see my family doc (I haven't seen him in years--haven't had any issues to warrant it). I will add two years ago I probably had a concussion when i fell on the ice and got whiplash from my head bouncing off the pavement. I haven't had any issues since, other than my neck is weak when I try and tilt my head back. 
Thanks ladies! 
Bless,
Kate

    I'm sorry.  Not suggestions here.  I have gotten cluster headaches a lot this trimester, thus far, but I know that doesn't compare to a migraine.

    I always used to have migraines they are NO FUN AT ALL!!!  I would just say make sure you are drinking enough water, get enough sleep, maybe write down foods you eat every day and see if there's a "trigger" that could just not be agreeing with you?

    I wouldn't take a prescription either - but I do understand Tylenol is safe.

    Lastly, I've noticed I get headaches when I need food, even if I don't "feel hungry" after I eat a small sandwich it seems to help...
