Inner Pressure

I don't know why, but this pregnancy has brought on more migraine headaches than I have ever had in my life. Even small headaches are so debilitating to me and when you add sensitivity to light and sound and nausea it makes my life almost unbearable. Considering the fact that I live with 3 small people who are gifted in the noise making department I'm sure you can see how a migraine could be a bad thing. Add in the fact that I'm still prone to praying to the porcelain god daily and I don't want to move.
With the other pregnancies I would get a few headaches but these are worse and Way more frequent.
I'm done complaining....for now.
Hopefully these headaches stop soon. I don't know if I can take much more!

I've had migraines with 2 of my 4 pregnancies (including this one), and I completely feel your pain. Have you asked your doctor about it? Some will prescribe something for you. They are so horrible when you've got kids... I'm sorry!

I get crippling headaches with my pregnancies too. Not migraines but they were so bad I once crashed my car... so I am not sure what you have tried but the ONLY thing that helped me and the best pain relief was ICE!! I would lay down with an ice pack on the back of my head. At first it feels good, then it hurts, get through that then it goes numb. Sounds insane but my OB, and two neurologists said it was fine to do if it helped. After about 10-20 minutes max I was 100% better. worked every single time. I don't know about migraines... but it's worth a shot??
