Elevate your feet with sum pillows, take two tylenol, and big glass of water, I mean the biggest glass you have in your house. Then sit back and relax, the pain should reside, in 2-3 hrs. If not then definitely call you Doctor back. I use to get these to and the tylenol helped, plus elevating my feet.

You need another opinion. I can't imagine a doctor telling you to take more pain medication at this point in your pregnancy. Do you have any other symptoms? Have you lost any fluid or passed any part of the mucus plug? I am sorry to tell you you may be miscarrying and you need to get to another doc or hosp to find out what is going on ASAP.

That's a tough one since most of the meds that would help are contraindicated with pregnancy. Tylenol is a category B so it's relatively safe.

i know several people who get severe migraines and we are talking SEVERE like out cold for days and even hospital visits! I think they are caused sometimes by hormones and hormone imbalance because my mom only started them when she went on birth control. Now she gets them only during the time of her period!!
good luck i know firsthand how much that sucks!!!!

regular doses of tylenol will not harm....if you have severe cramps you can take some spasmodics ...migraine is uncommon in pregnancy.
get well soon

You could also be exhibiting signs of dehydration which are common in pregnant women. Increase your water intake and see if anything changes.

drink lots of water and lay on your side, i think its your right side. and if it doesnt help, go to the emergency room.
