I wouldnt recommend anything other than Tylenol, make sure your drinking enough water. Dehydration causes horrible headaches, if I didn't drink enough water I would get headaches instantly.

I agree with alicesaidwhat. I had the worst headache at the beginning of my pregnancy Tylenol and lots of liquid. They stopped as sudden as they started.. Just know u will get ur body back after a few mths :)

I'm not sure what goodys powder is but if it's anything like BC powder which is powdered asprin..don't do it. My sister is a pharmacist and she suggested I try taking Tylenol, drink lots of fluids cause you might be dehydrated and not even know it! Caffiene helps too, like a small can of cola or a small coffee, and get plenty of rest!

I hope this helps and that you feel better soon. I'm 17 weeks too and the headaches are a nightmare. You are not alone!
