Headaches and hunger

Morning ladies, I’m 11 weeks 4 days and I’ve had a constant frontal headache for the last 3 days- has anyone else had this or have any advice as I’ve woken up and it’s still the same! Also anyone else’s hunger through the roof? It comes on so quickly and doesn’t ever fee satisfied!

I’ve currently got this. It’s focused around the left side, and is super painful…only started when I hit around 10+4…have you found anything that relieves the pain? xx

Me! X

I’ve been getting headaches the past week or so, I try to ride them out but they just don’t seem to budge. Paracetamol help at times but not always, have you tried the kool and soothe patches? The other day I also used a heated microwave bag/teddy which eased it a little before going to sleep and it was gone in the morning. My midwife also told me to be drinking at least 2-3L water a day. Also my hunger has been on another level, I just can’t seem to fill myself haha xxx

I haven't got to this point yet but with my first, headaches early on were horrific. I was advised against my usual migraine medication so just had to ride them out. Honestly, the best thing you can do is phone in sick and try to rest. It won't go against your sick record as you're pregnant. Forehead strips are good x

Thank you so much girls, as much as I’m sorry you’re suffering too, it’s reassuring to know this seems fairly common! I haven’t tried the cool strips, it’s been so cold here I couldn’t think of anything worse but I will deffo give them a go! I’ve got a midwife chat thing with my hospital so I will let you know if they have any other suggestions! Xx
