That plus a little caffeine (within 200 mg limit) helps some, but mostly I just sucks. Feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-headaches-and-insomnia#post-1854318 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 08:12:02 +0000 blackbird 1854318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been taking Unisom to sleep and it's been great. I usually get a tension headache when I'm under a lot of stress, though, so I have to work out or read or just relax to get it to go away </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-headaches-and-insomnia#post-1854274 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 07:38:50 +0000 LAZB 1854274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This won't help you sleep, but I've been getting terrible headaches in the afternoons, not quite migraines, but really bad. I find if I have a coke or tea at lunch, it makes them much better, or sometimes I don't get them at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-headaches-and-insomnia#post-1854271 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 07:33:49 +0000 namaste 1854271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As someone who's been up since 3:30am with a headache, I don't think I'm too helpful.</p> <p>My house has been dark for most of my pregnancy to keep my migraines down. I just drink pretty of water and try to lie down when its unbearable. Tylenol doesn't help me at all. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-headaches-and-insomnia#post-1854257 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 06:46:13 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1854257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any natural cures? I know Benadryl and some other things are allowed during pregnancy but I really hate to take something. I am exhausted though with tension headaches. I toss and turn all night long. Thanks for your suggestions! </p>
