Massive Headaches

I’m 15 weeks pregnant, and recently I’ve been getting massive headaches. They will last for a couple days straight! I can’t sleep, and sometimes I just lay there and cry! 😭
I want to take ibuprofen soooo bad!! Has anyone else experienced this?! And what helped?

I had this when I got sick and I'm thinking the electrolytes and rest helped.

Omg I’m battling this too! I’ve tried so many thing, cold rags, putting my feet in hot water. I’m drinking so much water so I know it’s not dehydration. I’m sorry I don’t have an answer but I can relate

I have no clue! Give me more info! Does high blood pressure lead to headaches? Or low blood pressure?

I was told to take 400 mgs of magnesium everyday! I had headaches all during my pregnancy

high blood pressure! You could have pre-eclampsia, which is super dangerous for you and baby. Please go check your blood pressure. I remember headaches being pretty normal around 14 weeks pregnant, but it's always better to be safe than sorry. Normally, pre-eclampsia doesn't show up until 20 weeks, so don't worry too much. 🫶

I’m 13 weeks and have had the worst headaches and I get so dizzy standing up sometimes , I thought I was dehydrated or something 😭

You can take Tylenol. I get them too sometimes. Drinking more water and going to the chiropractor helped me

Hey everyone! This was a post from forever ago!! But little update, but to the person who commented preeclampsia, you were dead on! I’m now admitted into the hospital and have to stay here until my baby is delivered ❤️
