Is this normal?

Question

Im 28 weeks pregnant and ive got the worst headache like nothing before. Its really hard to focus, on top of being super nauseous im having a good bit of tummy cramps similar to Braxton hicks... I keep spacing out and hurt a lot, keep falling asleep but cant stay asleep very long. I thought i just ate something bad, but now im not sure. I cant call my doctor because shes already left the office, what should i do?

Answer

Do you have any way to check your blood pressure? It might be high. Not to freak you out but those could be preeclampsia symptoms. If you take Tylenol and your headache won’t go away, you need to go to urgent care or the ER. Or call the on call
Nurse at your office.

Answer

Call the after service line severe headaches can be a sign of high blood pressure or preeclampsia.

Answer

Could be a migraine, you can try taking something for it. The office doesn't have an on call doctor? If it's that bad it might be worth a trip to urgent care or something.
