5 weeks pregnant and getting these dull headaches almost daily, never had this before. thoda worried if its normal or something to check. anyone else faced this in starting?
It is very common in early pregnancy because of hormonal surges. Just stay hydrated and never take any over-the-counter painkillers without asking your doctor.
My doctor explained that blood volume increases drastically in the first trimester, causing headaches. Getting enough sleep and resting in a dark room really helped me.
I stayed at my parents' place during my pregnancy and mom's warm coconut oil massages were a lifesaver. Make sure u are eating on time and sleeping well.
