Guest guest Posted December 4, 2001 Report Share Posted December 4, 2001 Yeah...I plan on bringing it up to my OB tomorrow. It'll be interesting to see if they have changed at all.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2001 Report Share Posted December 4, 2001 Amy, I have a friend who had a non-stop migraine for the first 4 months. I hope that's not happening to you! She was 43 and having her first. He's an adorable 5 month old now.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2001 Report Share Posted December 5, 2001 Amy, I also had migraines with my first child. I had about 5 or 6 of them in the first couple of months before my mom came up with the connection. I had never had migraines or food allergies before, but whenever I ate red meat while I was pregnant, I would get a horrible migraine the next day. Stopped eating red meat, no more migraines. After the birth, I was able to eat red meat again and had no problems. Weird, but my doc said that does happen to some people. It doesn't have to be meat either, it could be anything. Not saying this is your problem, but think back to when you've had a migraine and what you ate before and see if there's any connection between the foods. I know food allergies can cause migraines for people, but I never heard of it only in pregnancy. Hope you feel better and the pregnancy goes smoothly! (who really craved Big Macs during all her pregnancies because of this problem, in spite of 6 months of morning sickness) not feeling " right " (just complaining) >> >> Over the last few days I've had really bad headaches.
