Anyone else getting headaches often?

In 14 weeks and I find myself getting headaches fairly often.  What have you done to help. This is horrible I'm the type of person that never gets headaches so I'm finding it hard to deal with. Thanks for the feed back.

Yes it was everyday for 2 weeks straight. Ice packs Tylenol and a Pepsi are what have helped me. I suffered from frequent headaches before pregnancy

I suffer from chronic migraines and have stopped taking all my medications due to my pregnancy but my headaches and migraines have become unbearable so my ob has given me fioricet as something to help take the edge off. It helps with the milder headaches but not the full blown migraines.

My doctor prescribed me headache medicine.  I had them all the time and talked to my doctor.  The medicine she prescribed me has a little caffeine and they work amazing.  When I get a headache I take one pill and it knocks it out!

I try to make sure I am drinking enough water. I noticed late in the day I would get these headaches. Water was making me nauseous so I started drinking sparkling water. This help a lot. As soon as I feel a head ache I take Tylenol and try to rest a little bit. Good luck!

I had terrible headaches in my first pregnancy.  Tylenol is not great for taking the edge off but I took it anyway.  What helped me was a neck, head and shoulder massage.  I had my hubby do it and for a special treat, had it done at a clinic a couple of times.  It really helped.  Hang in there

I'm 15 weeks 3 days and I get them quite often now since I became pregnant.  I drink lots of water, I eat but I think for me is my body thinks sleep is a joke and I have a hard time sleeping.  My first I could sleep for 12 hours. This time nope.  If your concerned talk to your doctoe. Drink lots of water and make sure your blood pressure, sugar everything is good and lots of rest

Thank you. I will be checking my sugar levels soon the lab work is already in. This is so weird I never had headaches with my others.  
I got them when i would get my period but now it's like 3-4 times a week. Especially on rainy dark days. I have a 4 year old so I got to keep her entertained as well.
I got a two year old.  I think it makes it worse not being able to relax when I get them.
