Did anone suffer from migraines after delivery?

I did with my first son and now it seems to have started with my second. Yesterday it actually caused my to vomit and today I can hardly focus my eyes.

Re: Did anone suffer from migraines after delivery?

Did you have an epidural? Some women experience horrible migraines for a long time after one...

Or it could be the hormonal change. Headaches are many times related to hormonal shifts in women...

PLEASE get medicine. They have amazing migraine meds out there, I was on them years ago when I suffered from them. Feel better, i hope they go away very soon!!!

I strained my neck while pushing and it resulted in a stiff neck and horrendous headaches which brought me to tears. I took so much tylenol and motrin that it upset my stomach. Heat, massage and finally a few trips to the chiropractor finally made me feel better.

ETA: This was only the first 2 weeks pp though. How many weeks pp are you now?

I'm 10 weeks pp. I definetly think these migraines are hormonal. They can also be from BC as I just started them.
I wouldnt wish this pain on my worst enemy!

I had my first migraine when they removed the epidural. I had them turn the lights down and I vomited for 1 hour after. I had them for a week or two after coming home but TG thy went away. to you!

BCP can def. cause headaches. I would speak to your dr. about it and probably find another form of BC.
