Headache question

I have had a weird headache for a day or so now. Every time I bend down I feel like my head is going to explode. Laying down hurts also. Is this a normal pregnancy thing or a blood pressure issue I should be concerned with?

I had gone through that also in my pregnancy. It was like two weeks of headaches on and off.

Another headache sufferer here. Last night I had a travelling headache. First it was in the back of my skull and then behind my one eye...and Tylenol did nothing. Sounds normal but you can always call your OB and see what they say, it never hurts to do that so you dont worry.

I had headaches during the first trimester. Some were really bad. You can take Tylenol, but check with your OB...feel better!!!

I took Tylenol but it did nothing. That usually works for me. I have been having headaches off and on the whole time. Guess its just something I have to deal with. I can sympathize with the traveling headaches! I even tried and ice pack! Feel better!

I got bad headaches in my first and second trimester, but knock on wood, they've subsided and I feel good these days!

Re: Headache question

i would just let your dr. know. ONLY because I ran into such complications in my pregnancy towards the end, and realized that there had been minor symptoms along the way that were the pre-cursors. I am SURE there is nothing wrong, but I always think to myself...I wonder if I had told them about that that day....maybe somebody would have noticed it on the chart, etc. It's just better to let them know everything, even if you feel you are being over-cautious!
