Tension headache?

I've been suffering from a prolonged headache since last Saturday. Peak dia malam tadi.. its not migraine though.. so, most of the time, it still bearable.. cuma ye lah, benda tu bugging je..

From http://www.babycenter.com/0_headaches-during-pregnancy_2035.bc

It's not unusual to get tension headaches when you're pregnant, especially in the first trimester. aku baru 6 minggu ni nyah.. kalau betul pening ni dalam 1st trimester, ada 6 minggu lagi ni.. hinsh..

Tension headaches — the most common kind of headache — can feel like a squeezing pain or a steady dull ache on both sides of the head or the back of the neck. If you've always been susceptible to tension headaches, pregnancy can make the problem worse.

Experts don't know exactly why carrying a child tends to make your head ache more often, but
one good guess is the hormonal free-for-all that's taking place in your body. Going cold turkey on caffeine can also make your head pound.

Other potential culprits include lack of sleep or general fatigue, sinus congestion, allergies, eyestrain, stress, depression, hunger, and dehydration.

For most pregnant women, headaches tend to diminish or even disappear during the second trimester, when the flood of hormones stabilizes and the body grows accustomed to its altered chemistry.

From http://www.drspock.com/article/0,1510,5894,00.html

Tension headaches are common in pregnancy and will usually respond to over-the-counter pain medications. Most people who have had tension headaches will recognize the classic symptoms of bandlike pain across the forehead or at the back of the head and not feel alarmed. In most instances, headaches that respond to acetaminophen (Tylenol)--which is safe for pregnant women to take--are unlikely to be signs of a serious problem.

Cik Yan,

Mcm symptom anaemic aje. Cuba buat blood test dgn gynae. Probably u need to take special folic acid with extra iron.

Serupa gaya mcm tiap kali akak pregnant. Cuma masa preggy, my boy the anaemic level is very bad. Sampai bersalin tahap Hg darah ku tak juga naik2. Pening kepala yang hamat sgt, sampai naik lebam belakang kepala and badan sbb berbaring yang terlampau lama.
