Constant Headache From week 13 to 16

I have been having headaches almost daily, and I have been taking normal panadol, but i am so concerned that one day it might affect my baby whether before or aften born, but the pain is unbearable sometimes. Is anyone like me too?? And panadol doesnt work for me most of the time

Hi I have constant headaches too, partly due to caffeine withdrawal, dehydration (if I go out on hot days) and I also understand it can be related to blood vessels expansion during pregnancy. However I agree with the mummy below it should be checked in case it is due to hypertension and risk of pre-eclampsia. As for paracetamol, if taken within the recommended dose and using for the shortest period possible, it is generally safe for mummy and baby (Pregnancy Category A).

hi! you might want to check in with gynae. I am at risk of pre eclampsia and doc informed me that headaches could be a sign... so u may want to get it checked. just to be on the safe side. take care!

nah panadol won’t affect if consumed within safe limits
