I had them for the first 16 weeks at least. I drank a lot of water. My bp was fine so the doctor wasnt concerned.

How far along are you? Do you have high BP? Any swelling? Do you see any floaters? Do they go away with tylenol?

I'd call the dr just in case. Headaches can be nothing but they could also be a symptom of preeclampsia which I believe can come along suddenly.

Re: headaches anyone???
I've had headaches this entire pregnancy. I'm 21 weeks now & have one right now actually.
My blood pressure if always fine. I don't take anything for them, I just deal with it. They aren't debilitating or anything, just annoying. Feel better!

Re: headaches anyone???
I had awful headaches my entire first trimester, they were either tension headaches or migraines. (It wasn't a BP issue). I took Tylenol and had a small cup of caffeinated coffee, which always seemed to help. Also, Gatorade.
Feel better!

It cannot hurt to give your doctor a call to discuss your headaches. I suffer from migraines and I have had a few really bad headaches- what helps me is staying hydrated, caffeine and Tylenol-I also put a heating pad on my head when the pain is really bad.

Re: headaches anyone???
Thanks ladies. Had my BP checked at work (we have a nurse on site), and it was 112/66, so all is good. Still have a headache but will take Tylenol before. Ed. Not unbearable, just really annoying. My Drs office was closed today so will call in the am if I don't feel better.
Thanks for all the responses!
