When you take Tylenol try drinking a can of soda with it, and if your nausaus like i was with the migranes drink like 7up or sprite for the soda. My dr said since I was in the first trimester they didnt want to prescribe me anything, so he said to take tylenol and drink caffine. Which when you look at the migrane meds we could take pre pregnancy they have caffine in it, so it might help. Just makes sure you are not over doing the caffine or the tylenol, and like kayla said relax, if you are able lie down in the dark, cold rag etc. I am not into my second trimester and they come and go still but the pressure and headaches are a little less painful then they were before. Hope you feel better soon.
