i suffer with them a lot during pregnancy and over here where only allowed to take paracetomol anything else has to be looked into so i tryed whats called 4 head its like a giant chap stick that you rub on your head it worked wonders :) not sure if youve heard of it but they should sell them in pharmacys worth a try.

Tylenol is about the only over the counter pain reliever Obs  recommend taking.  Prescription wise the only pain killer I know to be safe was hydrocodone which is generic for loritab, but they don't like to prescribe it on a regular basis.  I got it in my second pregnancy after I had to have surgery.  I have had it once in this pregnacy when I re-tore open a hernia repaire.  It's usually just for major pain.  

I would try the Tylenol and maybe a heating pad for your neck and headaches.  I also see a chiropractor and simply by getting adjustments I have less headaches, back, and neck pain myself without having to take so many pills.  It really does help a lot.
