What Causes Headaches While Pregnant?

There are a insane amount of different things that can cause you to have a headache. It seems to get much worse when you are pregnant. You are much more likley to have a headache if you are in the middle of a pregnancy. Especially if you are very late into it. I would say that there are a handful of more common reasons why you get them and some not so common. I would rather talk to you about the more common problems that cause headaches because that is going to be a little bit easier for me and you. Once you figure out what is causing them you can learn how to prevent them in the future and not get them anymore. 

1. Light Sensitivity 

Sometimes just a little bit too much light in your eyes can cause you to have a horrible headache.This is especially bad if you are staring at a screen all day such as a computer or television. If this is what is causing your headache problems its as simple as cutting down on your electronic usage. Do this and see if that works for you. If not move on to the next one. 

2.Dehydration

A lot of the time dehydration will be the culprit. If you can't drink your fair share of daily water you might be at a much higher risk of developing a migraine headache. So the answer to this is obviously simple. Drink some water! The end. 

3.Not Enough Rest

Sleeping is a very important thing for you to do. Especially when you are pregnant. You must be getting your full eight hours if not more in the day. Take a nap here and there if you start to feel like you have a headache coming on. Just make sure that you are getting a decent amount of sleep. Not only is it good for you but the baby will benefit as well! 

There you go, those three are the most common reasons why you would ever get a headache. The worst thing about them is that they are maxed out by ten because of the simple fact that you are pregnant.
