First trimester headache

Oh my gooooood, is anyone else experiencing first trimester headaches?? I am 9w5d & they’ve been so bad this week. I’ve had one for 3 days and today woke up with a migraine that Tylenol doesn’t help. Tell me I’m not alone?! What do you do for yours?

Yes!! 9 weeks and 3 days preggo over here and sweet lord did I have the most intense headache ever yesterday. Completely debilitating. I honestly was too afraid to take anything in fear of hurting the baby

8 weeks 5 days same issue. Tylenol is supposed to be safe for baby but it doesn’t help much. My doctor said I can take is

It kinda helps calm my nerves knowing I’m not alone. I was starting to get worried thinking something could be wrong.. but I guess hormone peak is 9 weeks so thank goodness this week is almost over for me 😭😭 hope we all get through this quickly ! Lol

I started drinking liquid IVs like 2-3 times a day (first thing in the morning and then normally sometime in the afternoon) and that really helped! Even though I’ve been drinking a bunch of water I think most of my headaches are triggered by dehydration

I’m going to look into those! Thank you

My first 2 months were debilitating headaches alll day long. I loved on Tylenol

Yes this happened to me last pregnancy. Think of what our bodies are doing as equivalent to being an athlete. During 1st trimester I had to drink at least one bottle of something with electrolytes everyday in addition to my many glasses of water. I like vitamin water, I thought liquid IV was gross and it made me nauseous. It did the trick!

Make sure you drinking a lots of water… And check to see if your blood pressure is high..

I developed vertigo and migranes in the first trimester 😪😪😪thank God it's all gone in the 2nd tri... hang on sis

Omg same. I cried foe hours before deciding to take a Tylenol and that dint help either. I was taking progesterone and that was triggering it, I took a tough decision to stop taking it

I had a migraine with aura last night and I've been getting headaches daily for 2 weeks now.

Mine got so bad that I couldn’t get out of bed, I couldn’t eat or drink, and I was puking for multiple days. Tylenol did absolutely nothing, so my OB prescribed me Fiorcet. It helped me SO much. I won’t be taking it on a regular basis, but I was in soooo much pain!

Yes! Ugh hate it

Ohh laying on my side with head tilted on side helps me a lot, try it

My mood today !!! This feel so bad

Update I got a 90 ounce water jug I’ve been drinking it everyday for two days and I haven’t gotten a bad headache. Just some little ones here and there. Try to up your water intake! See if that helps
