Re: Headaches from hell: I am with you

[Guest guest]

I am with you on that one. I am 12 weeks today and I am experiencing

more headaches than ever before. Sometimes I have to sit here at my

desk near my computer at work and close my eyes because the lights

above me and the computer just hurts my eyes..any bright lights..and

in the middle of the night when i sleep i wake up with a

headache..and popping TYLENOL is like popping candy..nothing...i just

try to deal with it and drink more water..sometimes i chew gum just

to get my mind off of it...i hate that feeling...my doc says " its all

part of pregnancy " ..man i need to get paid for what they do because

it seems like everything is due to the pregnancy..hehe
