Me! I have heard that, but do you monitor your BP? I take my BP everyday and it is and has always been low ever since I can remember. The highest its ever been is 110/70. My doc said it was because all the hormonal changes.

I am 22 weeks pregnant and can just about tell by my headache that it's 3pm. I'm susceptible to them anyway, but having one every day really stinks. I think it's j6st fatigue, hormones and dehydration. Fun, isnt it?

Oh god dont say that tablefor4 im quite used to having them and its always been the first sign of illness with me anyways. But they are coming thick and fast and they stick around. My only saving grace is knowing that hormones are ramping up whoch means my little bean is growing some more! X

Most of mine go away when I've had a bit of a lie down. It gets noticeably worse if I have not had enough water to drink, or if I haven't eaten properly during the day (I work from home so sometimes just forget to eat for hours on end). Midwife graciously tells me that it's likely a combination of hormones and being older this time round (I'm nearly 38). Lol, I'm a hormonal geriatric. But they are a very predictable type of headache so I just use it as a good excuse to go and have a nana-nap.

Wish you all the best!

Yep, 10 weeks is when the headaches started! I'm glad I don't get them for too long, they come and go, but when I do have them they are horrible.
