A reason for the headaches?

[~Raven~]

I was reading the info from my bounty bag and I came accross this...

Headaches can be common in the second trimester due to increased blood volume and vascular output

A reason for it I guess, not that it makes it any better. I've also noticed that when I get a headache that I can actually hear my pulse. Almost as if my veins in my head are straining.

I know what you're saying - when I get one, if I sit still for a bit I can feel my head pulsate.

Well that makes sense then - thanks for that. wont make the little beggars go away though!

Thanks for the info Sammi, I did speak with my OB about it and she did tell me that they can often get worse in the second tri but didn't say why so that makes sense.

I reckon I can feel my head pulsating as well so I don't think it's our imagination it must be alot of pressure in there!

I'm with Frasier, it knowing what it is doesn't make 'em go away!!!!!!

Ooh I remember those headaches now. For me they were similar to the ones I used to get leading up to AF.
