How many of you with the pregnancy pillows have king beds? I'm looking at my queen and wondering how we would fit with the pillow and the two of us. We have a queen. Part of why I went with the mini.

Is anyone dealing with hormonal headaches? The last week I've been having a horrible headache off and on, like pounding with light sensitivity. Today it's worse, I'm sure due to stress. But tylenol, caffeine, water and ice packs are doing zero. Last week at the doctor she told me to contact her if they persisted or got worse and shed prescribe something. But of course her office evacuated so...I couldn't reach her today. I didn't get headaches last time. Ugh. Is that what this is? I started getting a killer headache last night and DH had to run to the store for me at 1am to grab Tylenol.

numbears my doctor said that if my blood pressure is normal and it's not a caffeine headache then she would assume it's a hormonal headache since I don't normally get headaches. Ugh. I hope yours don't become as persistent as mine has. Nothing seems to make a difference.

Hmm, maybe a new pillow is in my future. robot, a mini seems more manageable. I just used a ton of pillows in the past. I am a stomach sleeper so I am usually propping myself to be as close to that as possible without actually stomach sleeping.

oreobitsy we have a queen, so the pine I posted before, the j shaped one, works really well. lovealwaysalison pregnancy makes my headaches flair up some. Something I've found to really helps me is peppermint oil. I put it on my forehead and back of my neck. I'm not rally am EO person, but I'll take any relief I can get.

Does the peppermint oil do anything for nausea, too? I don't use it, but I'm willing to try it.

My husband isn't tall or large so that probably helps. It does get crowded when the 90 pound doodle tries to jump in though.

I've been getting killer headaches, too. I try to drink a little caffeine, but it's not very helpful. Usually I just massage my forehead and wish for bedtime to appear.

We have a new house so I'm constantly on criagslist looking for stuff. We have gotten so many things for our house from there. Doors, appliances, furniture, and even the granite for our island. I love craigslist.
I can't be the only one trolling garage sales and secondhand stores. What's the best resale deal you've gotten? Or favorite thing you've found?

I picked up the Diclegis at 11 and took a pill right away. I think it's helping? I am so hoping it’s not just a coincidence. I need this.

I took two Diclegis last night from the sample my OB gave me last time. So far, no vomiting today. I supposed I'll be talking to my doctor tomorrow at my appointment about the OTC formula since my insurance is dumb & won't cover actual Diclegis.

I supposed I'll be talking to my doctor tomorrow at my appointment about the OTC formula since my insurance is dumb & won't cover actual Diclegis. It’s unisom sleep tablets and 100mg of B6. That’s what I’m on instead of my diclegis prescription because $$$ and it was going to take a week for insurance to MAYBE approve it. Fucking stupid.

armpants the winds did die down but it still spread through a state park and into a senior community. I'm back at work today but I'm not very productive. So far containment is still at 0% last I heard. We also just got word there's now a vegetation fire caused by downed power lines in our town, about 5 minutes from our house. Crews are just responding and no evacuations are required yet since its in a field and just started. Hoping they get it contained quickly. It's also right at the opposite end of a street where one of the main evac centers are so that's not good. My car wouldn't start this morning presumably because the air filter took in too much ash so my H dropped me at work and now I feel stuck. Ugh. Sorry to be a downer.

Mine took a week to approve, and then I got a letter in the mail that basically made me feel like they were telling me I was so fortunate that they deigned to approve my request. Luckily, they gave me a lot of samples at the office to hold me over.

Take two tonight at bedtime, that’ll definitely help get you through the night, and start you off on the right foot in the morning. I love diclegis and it works really well for me, but I can’t take it during the day because it makes me so tired that it’s impossible to function. I only take the night dose, and then I have to use Zofran during the day.

But I will not survive any more days without something. Ugh. Worst.

I had the worst headache on Sunday. It felt like a tension headache.
Today I am just really tired. But I don't know if it is from work or pregnancy.

I can't fit a pregnancy pillow in our queen bed.
Headaches have always been a second tri thing for me, but this time they've started earlier.

I keep seeing this Homegoods commercial about this little boy and his pregnant mom checking for monsters every night. When the baby's born, he does a monster check for the baby. I'm super emotional tonight and it's giving me all the feels.

She doesn't believe it does, but some providers that she works with won't prescribe it for that reason.
