Pregnancy related or not?

So, I'm not sure if the two are related but I've never experienced this before... For the last couple months I've been experiencing an abnormally sensitive scalp. My usual style is to throw my hair up into a bun and go, but for some reason my head is so sensitive that it kills me right in the spot where my bun sits (most of you ladies know the scalp ache I'm referring to). I wear my hair down on occasion (if I have time to straighten it) and the same thing happens. Right in the part of my head where my hair falls to one side or the other my scalp aches. I honestly am at a loss for what to do. This is my 4th pregnancy but my first time dealing with a seemingly unrelated to pregnancy issue. Anybody else deal with this??

My scalp and all skin for that matter is so sensitive right now. I have had to switch my shampoo and body wash plus special lotions... its awful! I have had to just wear my hair down a lot... good thing I stay home most days so I don't have to fix it.. sorry I have no idea what it is but I feel your pain
