My heads going to explode

[Hopeful_Momma]

I'm 7 weeks & 5 days, I've been experiencing major migraine headaches, in sensitive to light, sound, and smell! I'm miserable. When I get up my head feels like there's a little person inside beating away at my brain. My head is pounding along with the beat of my pulse. I don't know what to do about it. I can't drive. I can barely eat. Is something wrong with me? ppl say it's normal to have headaches during pregnancy but THIS BAD? uhg.

My bp is low, I thought it was that too but I have normal bp. Ever since my heart started to beat real strong my headaches developed. I assume is migraines because I'm sensitive to light.

I have been having migraines as well and it ***** because my migraine meds are off limits. Talk to ur dr because there are a few migraine meds Ive read about that are safe. Also try pounding caffeine and going to sleep with something covering ur eyes and an ice pack on your head or back of your neck. Another thing that helps me sometimes is orgasms. I know it sounds weird but its such a tension release that helps to open blood vessels and theres no sex required you can do it yourself!

I have the headache in my eye and temple and it travels to the side of my head. It's real bad. I'll try Tylenol. My bp is normal, a little low.

Where is the pain located specifically? If it is more in your cheeks and forehead (around your sinuses) you may want to try taking zyrtec. Being pregnant makes us a million times more (an exaggeration I know) susceptible to allergies. I had sinus migraines that would make me cry, zyrtec was a godsend

Have your bp checked. Also, you can take Tylenol.
