Awful headaches

[sammylouise56]

I'm currently 17 weeks pregnant and for the past week Ive suffered from painful headaches everyday. I keep getting pain at the top of my neck like it's stiff and got a knot. Is it normal to suffer from bad headaches when pregnant?

Thanks.

It can be, i would mention it to the midwife at your next check up, and maybe get a pregnancy massage and ask them to focus on your neck and shoulders

Yes I had then throughout both pregnancies, second trimester being the worst. Paracetemol and 4head help

This is really strange but the only thing that ever helps me when I get a headache is to put a clothes peg on the bit of skin between my thumb and first finger. Saw it on Facebook a while ago and was sceptical but worked for me! Doesn’t cure it but gives some relief I’ve found
