    Question Migraines

    Are they more common when your pregnant?

    I am prone to getting the occasional mind splitting migraine, i was on my way to work yesterday and i started to get the fuzzy lines in my left eye and i ran home just in time for it to hit me big time. I slept all day yesterday, i woke up for an hour or 2 but it came back i seem to be ok now.

    But do you think its something that will happen more often because im pregnant?

    I had terrible migrains when I was pregnant too. I have always got them, when I was a teenager I'd have 1 or 2 a week but now I only have 1 or 2 a year, when I was pregnant I had them once a month or so.

    I think for some people the hormones make it worse

    Ooooh yes! I have had a constant headache for 2 days now, its not exactly a migraine, but i do suffer with them also.
    I had migraines alot when i was younger, atleast once a week, these days it has dwindled down to 1-2 a year, i find the a little bit of headache releif works well too. Goodluck
