UGH i swear it's at least 2x a month. 
my brain feels like it's going to shatter every time i move.
i used to take immitrex pre-ttc/preg/ds but i didnt get them at all during pregnancy and have been using the old school ice pack+dark+sleep method this past year whiile bfing.
i finally caved and took an excedrine migraine.

I get them too and was also on Imitrex pre babies
My DH keeps telling me to go back to the dr and I know I need to I am just lazy!
Like you I do ice pack, dark and sleep to rid them!

Ugh, I can empathize. I've gotten them my whole life. I'm happy that Excedrin Migraine works for me, except that I HAVE to lie down and sleep...that's a problem with a toddler who doesn't have an OFF button. I'm finished BFing, so after the holidays I'm going to go to my doctor and see if I can get something stronger (that preferably won't knock me out).

@lovehoneybee: I also have to sleep to fully get rid of migraines. It is so tough! I can't imagine what it will be like to have an active child at the same time.

@MrsKoala: I've been REALLY REALLY lucky that so far I've only gotten them when D is at home. Last one I got started on our way to get holiday photos taken...some of the pictures you can see my face tightening and eyes wincing. By the time we got home I couldn't do anything besides crawl into bed and not move for two hours!
