Is my body trying to tell me I'm not drinking enough water ? Or something

@maymay6575 I share your pain, particularly today. I woke up with a crashing migraine and being 16w pg I could not take anything for it. Made me throw up all day (which has so far never happened before) and having a 1yo as well is not making things easier.

I know I'm constipated (sorry, TMI) and that makes things worse. Perhaps it's the same? Try having something to make you "go" (coffee helps me, or a combo of coffee and cold orange juice :P.

Water cannot harm either, see what helps.

Update - went in to triage and they monitored baby everything is good and they took my bloods and urine and blood pressure everything was normal so they advised me to drink more water and get some more rest as I haven't been sleeping well.

Thank you anyone who replied and if anyone is having bad headaches especially more later in pregnancy please don't hesitate to get checked out even if it might be nothing better to be safe x

I had terrible pregnancy headaches caused by overnight jaw tightness. My dental hygienist told me I was doing it! Apparently it's automatic to clench while asleep in response to the hormone relaxin making your jaw relaxed so differently aligned. The dentist wasn't doing the paid for custom mouthguards, so I bought a cheap sports one, I hate wearing it but it has helped a lot! I saw you got everything checked, but obviously if your headaches change do tell them again!
