I am in my 2nd trimester and these migraines are killing me. I try to avoid screens but nothing helps, is anyone else also getting severe headaches around this time?

Indu Patel · Answer

I panicked so much when I got my first major migraine in pregnancy, thought something was wrong. But my doctor assured me it is just hormones and told me to rest in a dark room. It gets better!

True, drinking lots of water and keeping a cold pack on your forehead works really well to prevent them.

Hey, don't stress too much! Migraines are mostly due to hormonal spikes. Just drink coconut water, get enough sleep, and take things easy, babe.

I used to get so stressed thinking a migraine meant high BP or something worse! Just make sure you eat on time because empty stomach triggers it instantly. Stay safe!
