Ok, so i've come to the conclusion that I
might possibly be pregnant. I'm very
prone to migrane headaches. My
nuerologist took me off of the medicine
she had me on because of the birth control
issue. But has told me that when I feel a
headache coming on that I should take
something with caffein binders in it like
ibuprofin. But i've heard taking those
can hurt a baby. Is there anything I can
take. Because these headaches tend to
come on often.

I would contact the doctor and find out if
ur pregnant first, and then should you be,
ask him or her what they think you can
take for ur headaches.

I'm not pregnant but I have something that
may help headaches...I get migraines alot
too, but I hate to take pills or medicines
because i'm afraid it'll mess with my
system...
Try this though...It works good for
me...I've found that once I fall asleep I
can handle the headaches...
Anyways get some vicks vapor rub or
something like it...And put some on your
forehead...You don't need alot (that stuff
is strong) and it will start to make your
head feel real good...And for more
comfort...Take a wash cloth and run it in
really hot water...And then fold it up
long ways and put that on top of the vicks
on your forehead....
This way you don't have to take any
medicines or anything wierd...Talk to your
doctor though before you do it...I'm not
sure about vicks vapor rub and pregnancy,
but I can't imagine that it would hurt a
baby, but you never know it's such a
sensitive thing
