I've never found paracetamol much use as a pain killer but I know my usual ibuprofen and also aspirin are out in pregnancy.
I've had a stomping throbbing headache from hell for about 30 hrs now and facing a second sleepless night. I've tried plain paracetamol but it hasn't touched it. I've got a head/neck massage booked but while I'm waiting is there any other paracetamol products that might help - some have caffeine in them, but is the dose of caffeine too high for pregnancy? What about codeine? I assume that's a no- no?
Any other ideas? How do those things you rub in your forehead work? Or us that just nonsense/placebo?
Please help, I'm nearly in tears
