Who else suffers from migraines?

I don't get them often, about once every couple of months usually. But when I do get a migraine it is absolutely horrible! They usually last about 24 hours, give or take. I can't handle any light at all, feel like I'm gonna vomit (actually have a few times), I get hot and cold chills and just feel totally miserable. I put myself in a dark, quiet room hoping to rid the pain. I'm just wondering what are some things I can do (things that have worked for you) to prevent migraines. I hate when I get them as I am a mom of 2 and feel completely helpless when I get them. I can't physically do anything for my children when I'm dealing with a migraine. I feel like a horrible mom for that. My oldest is amazing and will help with my youngest when this happens, but I feel she shouldn't have to. So if there is anything I can do to try and prevent a migraine that would be absolutely amazing! Thank you in advance!!
