Also minimize the amount of things you do looking down. Looking down all of the time puts a lot of strain on your neck<br /><br />Good luck....if I were there I would give you a super treatment to make you feel better! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27648584.post-50652460621995253192010-05-14T19:43:49.893+03:002010-05-14T19:43:49.893+03:00Sorry for the headaches hun, that is NO fun.

Maybe try gatorade or something with salts in it just to be sure you are drinking enough.<br /><br />it could also be that due to hormones in pregnancy the mucous membranes have more blood flow and you get nose congestion, common problem in pregnancy, which in turn leads to headaches.babygagahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07948844490447192379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27648584.post-91441932729499600212010-05-14T10:47:31.173+03:002010-05-14T10:47:31.173+03:00I have had plenty of headaches too unfortunately, ...I have had plenty of headaches too unfortunately, I have had paracetamol and been advised to drink lots of water - plus I see an osteopath who helps enormously.<br /><br />Hope they go away quickly - have a fun trip!!Journey Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13431048965054379161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27648584.post-25859795332707635022010-05-14T10:28:31.913+03:002010-05-14T10:28:31.913+03:00I had headaches around that time too.

Aside from stress dehydration can cause them, hormones (like everything else lol), low blood sugar (as in you need to eat more snacks maybe), lack of sleep or they just happen cause they do (see hormones lol). So if drinking more water and eating more snacks and taking more naps doesn't help hit the paracetamol it's safe to take. Don't take anything with asprin cause your already on it and don't take anything with ibruprofin cause it's not safe. Codiene's safe unless you react to it like me but some say it's usless for headaches anyway so stick to the paracetamol and take a nap with it and hopefully you'll wake up headache free :)Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10621662046347566417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27648584.post-36143924663612039622010-05-14T08:32:53.795+03:002010-05-14T08:32:53.795+03:00Chiropractors, a little caffeine, extra strength t...Chiropractors, a little caffeine, extra strength tylenol, and, if you really can't stand it, get a prescription for vicodin. I can't take tylenol with codeine, makes me violently ill. By vicodin, which is tylenol with synthetic codeine is a wonder drug for me.<br /><br />Hope you feel better soon sweetie.<br /><br />Oh yeah, almost forgot, DRINK MORE WATER.

Also that same week I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, after I began following that diet my headaches went completely away. Not sure what change helped or just getting past 16 weeks. Moral, normal at least from my perspective :)G$https://www.blogger.com/profile/05010373805685335151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27648584.post-89027288584728293362010-05-14T06:08:51.937+03:002010-05-14T06:08:51.937+03:00I had awful headaches off and on for a couple of w...I had awful headaches off and on for a couple of weeks around the same time as you! My Dr. said that it is completely normal and that they generally occur because of our crazy hormones. (Or course - he had a much better explanation. :-) ) Anyway - like the pp, he suggested trying a little caffeine and also to stay on top of the headaches with Tylenol. Tylenol is perfectly safe if taken properly. I also found that a heat pack on the back of my neck/head helped some. Really - time just took care of them. <br /><br />All of that said - if you are experiencing severe pain or you don't feel comfortable trying Tylenol and such - try talking to an on-call Dr. if one is available.<br /><br />Hope you feel better soon!evsmariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05762471567839455889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27648584.post-13512430332189229922010-05-14T06:06:21.813+03:002010-05-14T06:06:21.813+03:00I second everything Jill said!

After you take the Tylenol lay down with a cold wash cloth on your head and that might help as well.

But guess who had them every day starting in the second? Me! They were awful. I started seeing a chiropractor which helped a ton! My neck was all out of alignment.<br /><br />I also talked to the doctor because I really didn't want to take anything. She looked at me like I was crazy and told me I should take extra strength tylenol, even if I needed it every day as long as I didn't go over the recommended dosage. She also said to have some caffeine with it (half can of soda) because it helps. So when the headaches were real bad I would take one or two tylenol and when they were really, really bad I took two with some soda.<br /><br />I hope you don't have yours as often as I did! Good luck!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09704657308448450841noreply@blogger.com
