9 weeks and killer headaches?

Millnsy · Sep 10th, 2009, 13:29 PM

Just wanted to see if anyone else has had this and if it passes. I have had a killer headache since about Monday. Didn't want to take anything for it but GP said paracetamol was OK to take. Anyone else have this? Apart from sore boobs and tiredness this is my only symptom so it looks like I've got away with the morning sickness but this headache is driving me mad...

i had the exact same thing i really suffered with mine aswell so painfull, still get em now and again but not as much. best thing i used for mine was for head its a stick u rub on your head that doesnt null the pain for long but its good to use wen your out and need an hours brake from the pain. but the best i used was cool and sooth headache strips u cant use them really outside cos its a strip and it isnt verry flattering but in the house is gr8 and that give u like 8 hours relieve almost. both r totaly safe wen pregnant as the four head is natral and the strips r none medical there just gell filled strips . both prob best for pregnancy as there safe and not tablets

I've been suffering with headaches all week too. Can't concentrate on anything and hate taking paracetamol

i found that i got headaches when i didnt eat. eat a little something and see if it gets better.

I've been getting headaches as well. While they weren't really that bad, they're starting to get worse. I don't want to take anything for them, but at the same time I don't want to deal with the pain. So frustrating!
