Headache that just won't quit?

Question

Good morning ladies!

As we hunker down here in the mid atlantic for another 4" of snow (in my opinion, Saturday snow is a total waste) I had the pleasure of waking up with day 3 of my headache. I'm 10 weeks, 4 days and tend to just blame any icky feeling on the good ol' hormones ;)

I have tried increasing my water intake, Tylenol (checked with ob first), naps, longer sleep, peppermint oil on my temples and even a little caffeine... Nothing seems to kick it!  Not sure I can do another day with this pain behind my eyes.

Any suggestions from you more seasoned mamas? Thanks gals!

Do you see a chiropractor?

Girl, I feel your pain!! Last week I had a migraine for 3 days and literally the only thing I could do was just sleep as much as possible and wait for it to end! :-/ 
Things I do that help ease the pain (but never eliminate it):
1.) Tylenol
2.) Hot shower
3.) lots of sleep (of course with a job and college, this one is quite hard)
4.) laying a cold cloth on my head at night

Did you have any luck with peppermint oil? I have considered trying some essential oils but are unsure of their success...

I've had headaches since prolly 6wks all up until today almost everyday and I'm now 9wks2days....it's awful and not a whole lot helps either....I had a friend suggest putting your feet in warm water and a cool compress on your forehead and sit and relax! Haven't had time in my busy schedule to try this but she said it helped her tremendously! If you try it let me know :)

I'm suffering with the same problem ladies, and nothing seems to work. I try and lie down, in a dark quiet place, and it kinda soothes the pain, it's horrible and my poor hubby doesn't understand all of these changes im experiencing :(

Ask your dr about Fioricet. I have a history of migraines. Knocks them out in about 20 min. I've tried everything you can think of to. My regular migraine meds aren't safe during pregnancy, but this one is
