Hey guys, I have had a headache for three days. I went online and figured out it is a migrane.. Wel I am 31+ 1 today and kind of worried. When I looked online (multiple websites) it says that a migrane in the last two trimesters can.be a sign of preeclampsia, Have any of you went through this? I feel bad for running to the dr. so I wantes to get some input first. I have had this happen once before and I was around 22 - 25 weks...

You yourself can only go off of symptoms , the doctor will check your urine and blood pressure to truly know and diagnose it . Sorry I could help as much .
