well i had headaches during my pregnancy my doctor gave me meds to take. but getting headaches really often can be a sign of something wrong. you need to talk to your doctor. let them know how often you get them, how long they last, go away with Tylenol, etc...

From time to time yes they are normal. Drink water and eat well. Headaches only is fine, but if your experiencing more than just headaches go get checked out even if it turns out to be nothing. You can never seem silly when your not sure and need to make sure all is OK. From time to time I still get them at 37wks of pregnancy. Hang in there your almost done.

I would definitely mention it to your doctor and if you notice that your vision is changing(blurriness,spots,etc...) I would go an see a professional right away.Sometimes our blood pressure rises during pregnancy and this can be a problem. If it rises too much,it is called pre-eclampsia,protein will also shows up in the urine.A test is usually done each time you visit your doctor,your blood pressure is taken and they check for,among other things,protein in your urine.Headaches are a common complaint that women have, although if they are sudden and very painful I would call your doctor,just to be on the safe side.Lot's of stuff happens to us when we are pregnant so it is a good thing to write all of it down and discuss it with your doctor at every visit.Good luck

It could be a combination of fatigue and hormones because your body is gearing up for the delivery of your baby. Your body may be telling you to slow down a bit. But if you are concerned, I would call your OB and ask. That is what they get paid the big bucks for. It may have something to do with your blood pressure. I would call your doctor's office when they open and tell them that you are concerned.
Good luck!

You still can recieve headaches but next time you go to your doctors appointment let your doctor know just to be safe.When i was pregnant i made a list of every thing that bothered me and took it to every doctors appointment.

Oh yes. And you are lucky that they have not started earlier.
Try to cope with them the natural way, by meditation and relaxation, etheric oils and massages. Only if all that fails and you cannot really cope, you should use painkillers. But see your doctor about it and make sure you get medication that does not affect the baby.

Your headaches may have more to do with allergies than pregnacy, as this is the season.
Please call your dr. and let him/her know though, just to be on the safe side. it could be that the baby is laying on a nerve, even.
Congratulations on your pregnancy! You are almost there!!!!!!!
