Migraines What can I take?

I am 7 weeks pregnant and normally take excedrine for my migraines but I looked it up and it can cause a miscarriage what is something safe I can take or just something natural that would help?

Talk to your doctor. I had them prepregnancy and mine told me they could prescribe something for them if I got them bad while pregnant. Fortunately I haven't needed anything, but there is something out there if you need it.  Good luck..migraines are the worst. :/

My docs told me Excedrin was okay as a last resort until they prescribed me something. Make sure to mention it to your OB and of it persists get an appt asap.
