I have had headaches everyday for the last five weeks. I wake up with them and they don't go away with pain medicine. I am five months pregnant so I can't take strong medicine. I have a history of migranes but I've not had one in a year. They are becoming so bad that I've been sent home from work everyday. They can't be caused by stress b/c I was on vacation for 2 weeks & still had them everyday.

You need to check in with your doctor to be sure that nothing serious is going on. Anytime you have headaches that cannot be relieved by normal pain medications they should be checked out by your doctor,especially when they continuous. Good Luck.

Brandy, I remember the doctor telling me that it is common to get headaches in your 4th or 5th month of pregnancy, because I had them too. I do remember that they eventually went away, if that's any consolation to you.
