Call your doctor. There are pregnancy-safe migraine medications. I got them all the time before DD and had a few while pregnant. I'm so glad I finally mentioned it to my doctor as having a migraine while pregnant is even less pleasant than it sounds. For me, I have them rarely now. The same thing happened to my mom after she had kids.

Thanks I called my doctor they told me to take Tylenol don't know if that will help

I take rizatriptan benzoate (Maxalt). Honestly, if you're getting them frequently, I would push them into looking for a better solution than Tylenol. I know all migraines are different and have no idea how severe yours are, but mine are so severe I've been hospitalized a few times. Tylenol would do nothing. So if Tylenol doesn't seem to work, make sure you're your own advocate.

I used to get them all the time before my first pregnancy and only excedrine would help. My doctor really recommended only taking Tylenol. I only got a few while I was pregnant, and surprisingly enough the Tylenol actually helped. Hope you find relief!
