Is anyone else having headache?

Hi ladies! We are expecting our first child, I am 12 weeks right now. The nausea and vomiting is still there and now I am getting bad headaches almost every day. The doctor said that its fine to take Tylenol but it makes me nervous to keep taking medication. Does anyone know of other ways to eleviate headache pain?

You can have one cup of coffee a day. Caffeine has been linked with headache reduction. It deffently works for me. It also help a with constipation, which helps to elivate lower admonial pain.

Dehydration could also cause headaches. Also try putting a humidifier in your room/house it can help with headaches and sinus issues as they are also common in pregnancy. I am experiencing both headaches and bad sinus issues daily. Good luck

Make sure to let your doctor know at your next visit that you're having headaches. Probably try keeping a headache journal, write down what you've eaten how much sleep, stuff like that. See if there are any triggers.

Make sure you drink a lot of water. Dehydration causes headaches. I get them bad as well. I do takeTylenol every now and then, or drink a sweet tea. A little caffeine could help as well.
