What can I do to help with the headaches? I'm 11 weeks along and they get me every afternoon, it feels like sinuses but I've taken three antibiotics and nothing has helped, could it be tension from stress at work? Any suggestions would be great, I don't want to keep taking Tylenol (which doesn't help much anyhow) several times a day.

I am also 11 weeks and having bad headaches. My dr told me that my headaches are due to tension/stress from work and that when pregnant your progesterone goes up to sustain the pregnancy and that also with the stress can cause bad headaches. She said it can also be sinus related because pregnancy tends to bring on bad sinus in us she said to try a claratin to help the sinus and while at work take the tylenol by the directions on the bottle and when I got home to take a nice warm bath to relieve tension. She said tylenol and warm baths will become my best friend. Hope your headaches get better!

Make sure you are drinking plenty of water. Dehydration is actually what causes most headaches. You can try using warm washclothes over your sinuses to see if that will loosen the mucous and relieve some of the pain. But I really suggest you drink more water. It will flush the tylenol from your body and will suprisingly help your headaches.

Angelic is correct, it would be sinuses. They drain down into enamel if there is a few commencing there, possibly as a result of coincidence. Another factor is it would be is predicament with the jaw. The one sidedness of it indicates that maybe it. The lump at the again of your neck would be facet of it. As a nurse, I massaged a men neck simply stuffed with knots. Some harm of themselves, a few do not however is also inflicting suffering somewhere else Do you clench your enamel? Maybe simply at night time. You would get a mouth preserve out of your dentist to avoid the whole closure of your mouth while clenching. If you clench for the duration of the day, get a preserve in your backside enamel due to the fact that you'll be able to speak with that. Another proposal maybe a enamel contamination. Some assets of suffering and be "referred" suffering, that's, feeling the suffering in one other location than the supply or as good. Infected enamel might provide you a headache. Good success and take care:)

This may sound crazy but it works. Pull your hair very gently but with firm pressure. The place that you need to pull your hair is at the base of your neck. Just pull and this will work every time for tension headaches. Hope this helps.

Drink more water. Those antibiotics were perscribed for you during pregnancy right?
Its hormones and it will pass. Stress from work will make it worse, and bring them on every day, but so will the hormones.
Avoid sugar, stop any caffiene intake, and drink a lot of water. You need it.

I was getting horrible migraines while pregnant and my doctor had to prescribe painkillers for me and he sent me to a massage therapist. Ask your doctor if they can recommend someone that does pre-natal massage. It really helped with my headaches.
