    Oh, that doesn't sound fun..wish I could help!
    Are you drinking enough water? (probably a stupid question, since a 7th on the way makes you an old hand at this )

    Maybe your dr/midwife or some of the other girls will have some ideas?
    All the best!

    Hi Rayla

    I had a week of headaches each day from week 11 - 12, it was horrible. As Nelle said make sure you are getting lots of fluids and also keeping you blood sugars steady by eating small meals through out the day.

    Maybe get your eyes checked with an optomitrist and if all this doesn't help, then see you GP!!!

    Good Luck.... I know how you feel!

    Rayla, I sympathise. I'm a migraine sufferer and from about 10-16 weeks felt like I had a permanent headache. It's worse when oyu can only take panadol too. However, mine did go away, and I've only had aobut two since then....

    They were always worse when I stressed about them.
    Know that probably doesn't help, but I do feel for ya. :flower:

    Hi Rayla, i'm sorry to hear you are going through this.
    When i was pg with #2 i had constant migraines from 13 weeks until i had him, it was a nightmare, i had to get shots to relieve the pain, i also took panedeine forte.
    Deffinately talk to your Dr or Midwife, they should be able to help.

    You could also try using a warm wheatbag over your eyes, this sometimes helped me.

    I hope it eases for you soon hun
