hey guys. my name is brooklyn. I am new to this app! I just found out I was pregnant on Christmas…

I had headaches the first trimester... just hydrate and get as much rest as you can

yes, they are caused by hormone fluctuations.

only medicine safe is tylenol. also I feel sorry for you.. Jacksonville has crazy drivers lol

My first trimester I had headaches every single day. The only thing my doc would say is to drink lots of water, every now and then take some Tylenol and by 20 weeks the placenta took over and the headaches were completely gone... I heard you can also take magnesium and get lots of rest

thanks ladies! and yes @nicemmcha2015 Jacksonville is awful. lol. we have only been here for 6 months and I am still not used to it

we go down to visit my husband's cousin who practically lived with us until he moved there with his mom and good lord... it scares the living crap out of me. we totaled my Pontiac there :/ do they still have all that construction going on near beach blvd(I believe that's where it was this past summer)?

yes they do! we never go on that side of town bc of all the construction! it's scary.

very. you'll be on a road that's closed before you know it. it took us an hour to figure out how to get away from there last time we went down. I was almost 100% sure I was going to have a heart attack! and that was in april! I can't believe it's still that bad.

yes lol. hopefully we will not be stationed here again!

Aww!! We got our very positive test on Christmas too! Congrats!!! && yes with my youngest daughter and youngest son I had HORRIBLE headaches

thank you!! yes it was funny bc I took a test Christmas Eve night and it looked negative so I trashed it.. then Christmas morning it was a faint positive so I pulled the other one out the trash and apparently I didn't wait the full 2 min before I trashed it. lol. oh and hopefully my headaches don't last long. they are just awful

top is Christmas Eve night.. bottom is Christmas morning.

I had been tracking mine since the Tuesday before Christmas. I got a faint positive 7dpo(Tuesday).two more faint positive 8dpo (Wednesday). Thursday 9dpo they were darker. Then Friday on Christmas I got a very clear positive and Saturday it was extremely positive. We are probably due around the same time @brooklynparten

yes we are! I took like 8 more tests the next few days bc I just couldn't believe it. lol. this is all so unreal to us. I can't wait to actually start seeing and feeling it!

I have been having headaches since day one constantly on right side of my head I complained to my doctor as its been 17 weeks now of it and I have to take Tylenol or I cannot get out of bed they told me its hormones and gave me a prescription that's safe for baby to help with the headaches.... beast of luck...

also have you gotten rid of caffeine? if you did that can cause the head aches too

I didn't drink caffeine before so it's not that. you're right it may just be hormones. I'm gonna keep monitoring them.

I didn't consume caffeine before this pregnancy either and my migraines were awful and I refused meds...my Dr told me I had three options: meds, a daily 400mg pill of all natural magnesium at bed time, and to stop them quickly drink a soda....since then I've had them under control...I hope you get some relief soon

@brooklynparten, according to the due date calculators I would be due around 09/06

mine is around the end of August but I haven't been to the doctor yet! I will find out for sure then!
