Thanks! I ended up making it off the couch after about 5 hours and was able to put her clothes away. :) It made me feel better...but now I'll have to take them out again to wash them. (Just wanted to see where everything would go!)

oh no! pregnancy migraines are the worst :(

I thought of you while I was having it knowing that you had some during your pregnancy too. I'm not sure what triggered it (probably hormones), but I'm hoping I don't get any more.

I hope not too!

Not to over-advice you, but just in case it helps, here's what worked for me...

-2 Tylenol with a Coke or black tea at the same time, repeat every 4 hours until gone, or taking unisom if it was late at night

and if that didn't work, then

-2 (midwife-prescribed) Tylenol + codeine

Your advice is always welcome and appreciated! I tried 2 tylenol (that didn't really do anything), but will be sure to add the coke next time. Maybe that bit of caffeine will be the secret trick. Normally I take herbs for them, but am not sure if they're safe to take right now and would rather err on the side of caution.
