31 weeks/everyday migraines

[ncmommy4]

I'm 31 weeks and have been waking up with headaches or migraines everyday.. it seems worst in the morning, but they do stay all day...of course being in my last trimester, I'm limited to meds I can take. Has anyone else had this issue?

I'm so sorry to hear about your unrelenting pain.  You still don't mention having tried the botox injections.  Have you tried Botox?  Please let me know.  And so sorry to hear about your sister.  That must have been very hard.  Sara

you should talk to doctor if you haven't already!  i didn't realize it was your 4th baby. and you never had them with others.  do you have gestational diabetes? i know that can cause severe headaches (had that too) from the high blood sugars.
need to be more cautious when your'e pregnant, so many other things going on with your body,  Good luck, take care of yourself and baby :)

You say that you have "been" on everything, but have you had nerve block, trigger point or Botox injections?  Those were the only treatments that really helped me.  And if so, how many injections of the nerve block and trigger injections did you have.   And at what dose did you get the Botox injections.  At the lower number of injections and lower doses, they did nothing for me.

Bad is not even the word to describe how they feel. I can't even stand up without feeling dizzy. I've been laying down all day with pillows over my head trying to avoid the sun and apply pressure. I'm on baby #4 and this is the first time this has happened. I'm going to try Tylenol and see if that helps.

i have had 7 children and had headaches with all the pregancies, the hormone changes.  they can get bad!   its awful when you're limited with what you can take. tylenol is safest.  you should talk to your doctor though  good luck!
