why do I keep getting headaches?
Ever since I got a BFP I get a headache everyday. I am trying not to take anything for it, but I can't take much more. Does anyone else get headaches like this?

Re: why do I keep getting headaches?
I didn't suffer with headaches, but I have read that they're fairly common. I would go ahead and take Tylenol- there's no need to suffer.

If you continue to get them, please go check it out with your Dr....it could be blood pressure related

Thankfully, no, they ended around 20 weeks, along with my m/s. I did not take anything. People say you can take Tylenol, but my doctor said to take Children's if I was going to take anything. That's only because I was not a big Tylenol taker to begin with, so he said this was definately not the time to start taking full doses. I suffered with no medication.
Hope you feel better. I noticed that sometimes having tea or coffee helped. Maybe it was something with the caffine. But sometimes, the only thing that helped was sleep.

Re: why do I keep getting headaches?
I started getting them around 14 weeks, I guess due to my hormones. I take 1 tab of Extra Strength Tylenol when I get them now because the pain became unbearable. The 1 tab seems to do the trick. I checked with my OB on this and he said Tylenol was fine, even extra strength in moderation (nothing was best of course, but when I feel like I have a 100 pound dumbell on my head, nothing is not an option). Anyway, check with your OB just to be sure - every doc is different, but I'm sure it'll be ok. Hope you feel better!

Are you drinking enough water?
Headaches can be a sign of dehydration.

Re: why do I keep getting headaches?
I was getting them in the first trimester, I think the sleepless nights and hunger added to it though. hope they fade soon

Re: why do I keep getting headaches?
I got headaches too a lot very early on. I took tylenol Xtra stregth and it helped. They didnt last the whole pregnancy, so they will go away eventually!

Re: why do I keep getting headaches?
I got them pretty bad from week 15-16. Took alot of Tylenol during that time.
Have you given up coffee, since getting BFP? You could be experiencing withdrawals?
