Getting headaches almost every afternoon these days, im 8 weeks now. Never had this before pregnancy so thoda worried. Is this a normal thing in the first trimester?
Yes, headaches are very common in the first trimester because of dehydration or lack of sleep. Make sure you are drinking enough water and getting proper rest. Don't worry, it usually gets much better in the second trimester.
Headaches can be normal due to hormones, but they can also sometimes indicate high blood pressure. Please check with your gynac to rule out any issues, especially if the headache is persistent or severe.
I just delivered recently and vividly remember those early week headaches, they were so annoying! My doctor suggested keeping a cold damp cloth on my forehead and resting in a dark room. It worked like a charm without taking medicines.
Beta, hormonal changes se sar dard hona bahut aam baat hai. Thoda sa sar pe nariyal tel ki malish karwa lo aur aaram karo. Agar dard bahut zyada ho, toh doctor se poochhe bina koi dawa mat lena.
I had terrible headaches early on, mostly because I had to cut down on my daily three cups of masala chai! Staying hydrated with fresh fruit juices and coconut water helped me a lot. Give it a try!
