Horrible Headache
I've been having trouble with my blood pressure, as most of you know........
I woke up this morning with a horrible headache....worse than any migraine I have ever had and I get bad migraines. Yesterday, I went to my family doctor and my bp was low....95/59. I haven't changed anything......so I called the doctor this morning.
The nurse called me back and told me to take two tylenol and lie down, hopefully I would start to feel the pain in my head would go away. I was also to come into the office at 2:45 to have my bp checked and a NST.....
Anyone else had a headache, this late in pregnancy - I'm 39 weeks, with no other symptoms.....I have no contractions, no pain, not nauseated, my water hasn't broken....and my bp was good yesterday.
thanks everyone....you guys are great support

UPDATE -
Went to the dr......confirmed, that yep, I have a headache. He isn't sure why it is so bad....bp was good, I wasn't swollen and baby was OK on the monitor.
He told me I needed to get some sleep and gave me compazine to help with the nausea. He said this would make me sleep, too.
So, back to bed I go..........and I will return to the dr on Thursday.
Thanks, as always, for the support!
I had a terrible terrible headache my last week of pregnancy. It was actually a week and three days long. Did not subside until the day before my daughter was born. I also didn't have high BP and the NST they did turned out fine. I just basically had to live with the thing until my kid came out. It sucked--even Tylenol didn't help.
I hope that doesn't depress you, but I just wanted to let you know I was in your shoes and everything turned out fine. Healthy baby, no more headache. Just hang in there!
