Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
I never heard much about headaches but I saw in my pregnancy book that it was normal, I just wanted to see if I was the only one.
I've had a headache for the last 24 hours that comes and goes. The same thing happened this past weekend so I'm thinking it's pregnancy related.
My morning sickness has let up a little bit (I'm afraid to jinx myself) and I'm feeling queasy as opposed to feeling severly ill. Now the headache thing is starting which doesn't help my sleepless nights. I wake up and can't fall back asleep even though I'm exhausted.
How many more weeks of this?  I hope I survive between all of the worry and feeling like garbage.

Yes, had about 2/3 per week. Just found going to bed early helped b/c tylenol didn't do anything!

I feel for you! I keep telling my DH this kid might be an only child I wanted to have two close in age but I don't know how I'd do it. I can barely function my husband has been doing EVERYTHING the last few weeks.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
Im in the 2nd trimester and I am still getting headaches. Mine are worse now than they were during the 1st. I'm really trying hard to not take any meds. I just put a hot or cold pack on and try to go to sleep if possible.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
Yes! I rarely ever get headaches but in the last month or so I have has one atleast once a week. I will be 11 wks tomorrow so I am keeping my fingers crossed that this is something that becomes less frequent in the 2nd trimester.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
The headaches were awful and lasted until I was about 15 weeks. Nothing but sleep helped them.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
Yup and they stunk. It's all the hormones. The did get better in trimester 2 but now in the "final countdown" they are back.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
Crashing! When I was pg with DS, I had THE WORST headaches the entire 1st Trimester and then again towards the end of the 2nd trimester. Horrible.
I found that drinking something with caffeine (being mindful not to go over the daily 200mg - or is it 300mg? - recommended limit) helped immensely! Sometimes the headache would completely go away, sometimes it just abated enough to make it bearable. Since I was working FT, I was so happy that SOMETHING finally made me feel like I could function.
For really bad headaches, I'd take a tylenol plus drink some caffeine. This was all dr. approved.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
I've had my share of headaches this trimester. They ranged from sinus headaches to i-need-sleep headache to you-need-to-drink-more-water headaches.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
I had headaches. When I would get one I would have a small cup of coffee because caffeine helps with headaches. It would most of the time do the trick for me.

Re: Headaches in 1st Trimester
Wow, the headaches are more common than I thought, we are all so lucky! 
I'm so afraid to take anything or to have caffeine (which I thought of ) because I miscarried my last pregnancy :(
