Just found out im around 6 weeks and ive been getting these dull headaches almost daily. Never used to get them before like this. Is this a normal pregnancy thing in the start or should i mention it to my doc?
Yes pretty common, hormones plus less water plus skipping meals all add up. Drink enough water, dont stay hungry and rest ur eyes. But if headache is very severe with blurry vision or swelling, call ur gynac, dont take it lightly.
Beta in early days this is normal. Rest in a dark quiet room, light head massage and proper water intake helps. Dont take any painkiller on ur own, only what doctor allows.
Mild ones are usually fine but I'll just say, in my case bad headaches later were linked to BP. So if its sudden, very strong or with vision problems pls get ur BP checked by doctor. Better safe.
When I had bad nausea I also got headaches coz I couldnt eat or drink properly. Once I started sipping water through the day and eating tiny bits, it eased. Hang in there.
