i M SUFFERING FROM HEADACHE & ITS GETING WORSE IN CERTAIN TIME OF THE DAY. UNLIKE MY LAST PREGNANCY WHEN I HAD NAUSEA & VOMITTING, I M PRETTY MUCH HEALTHY THIS TIMA & HAPPY THAT I HAVE NONE OF THE PROBS / BUT THE HEADACHE IS JUST TOO MUCH FOR ME TO TAKE RIGHT NOW AS IVE CAUGHT SOM COLD TOO..... ANY HOME REMEDY'S? I FEEL GUILTY TO KEEP TAKING TYLENOL & OTHER PAIN KILLERS.....AS I KNOW THE BABY WILL GET THEM TOO..... Manisha replied. hi everybody, I know one should try to avoid painkillers at all costs but seriously, if it is a very strong headache, we can take Tylenol (Regular Strength). That is what my doc told me. It is safe and we should not be worried about any side effects. so relax. after all if the mother has headache and is feeling grumpy, baby will feel grumpy too! kavitha replied. For me the headache starts most of the time in the evenings that too after i come back from my evening walk.We go for walk after dinner and normally around 7.30.It starts suddenly and then disappears too suddenly .I feel it may be becos its much cooler outside and when we enter the building after walk i feel stuffy all of a sudden and that must be causing headaches to me.Headache also comes when we return home from long drive and i've noticed that it starts only after i enter the house.Luckily i have this headache once in a way and its mild too , so i can tolerate it.These days when we go out we keep the AC on.So the house is cooler when we return.

If you are also have gas problem then its better to walk a little till you burb and feel light. You can even drink or eat sour fruit. that also help. and drink a lot water. Hope you will feel better soon. good luck. love niki replied. Hi SG & vasaudha, thanks for ur messages but i do take enough sleep as i am a housewife. of course watching tv & computer is not more that 1 hour in a day as i have to take care of Khushi who is just 9 months. BUTY THIS THING just comes any time in the day. i was hoping it will go after 1st tremister but is geting worse. when i talked to doc, he said it is all HORMONES. I feel miserable to know that i might have it all thru the pregnancy like many women have. But in last time i didnt have anything like headache. i mean even otherwise when i get flu fever etc in general, i never get headache...... this is really making me upset. But i guess ive to live with it only few more months hopefully DK replied. Hello,

This happens to me too. Headaches for me have started as soon as I entered into Second trimister.

SG is right about sleep. Sleep cures my headache, but sometimes it is possible that due to headach I cannot sleep :-)

Anyway, try to avoid any kind of medicine as far as you can. It will happen that if you take medicine first time then everytime you will be tempted to take it no matter how small headach is. Try to bear it !!!!

Enjoy. SG replied. Hi nikitha,Even I too get bad headaches sometimes towards evening. The best medicine is SLEEP. Just before sleeping, have some liquid like horlicks, juice etc and sleep. Ensure that not much noise is around u. Just sleep and after sometime, get up, have good lunchdinner. The headaches may be due to no proper intake of food, tension or sitting in front of tvcomp for more hours. Hope this helps.
