Try coffee, tylenol and ice first. If it doesn't go away, call the OB-they gave me percocet to take for a horrible migraine.

Re: migraine sufferers please help
If you also have pain in your neck you can also try a chiropractor.
I used to get a lot of migraine relief from my chiro.
Feel better!

Re: migraine sufferers please help
My neurologist doesn't want me taking anything unless they get so bad i cannot function. She has me taking tylenol and drinking a large coffee when I start to feel one coming on. Also she recommended me putting a cold compress on my head and back of my neck.

SLEEP in a dark, quiet room (if possible  )
2 extra strength tylenol, caffeine! 
also, make sure you stay hydrated!

I agree with all of this...migraines are the worst but when your pregnant and can't take most meds, it is just unbearable.
I usually do all of that advice above then have my DH rub my shoulders/upper back, it really seems to help me. Also water and "trying" to relax, deep breathes. For me it's usually related to stress or dehydration.
I am sorry you are dealing with this, I feel your pain
