Had a headache for 2 days - Paracetamol doesn't touch the sides and my 4 year old is being high maintenance (for a change Hmm).
Any advice on some relief? Or is there anything else I can take?

You should ask your midwife/GP to check your blood pressure and urine. Headache at this stage in pregnancy can be a sign that your BP is higher than it should be. Don't want to panic you, but please get this checked.

Call the hospital, the midwifed may house call or ask you in.

I see everyone else has piled in to say call your midwife/delivery suite urgently :)

I hope you're ok OP.
