Lately I've been getting really bad headaches (for me. I never get headaches) and my eyes are not adjusting properly sometimes not just for reading but for just looking at normal things like when outside etc. I don't take pain killers I usually ride out pain but today I have taken some panadol because I just can't stand the pain of the headaches. They are worse when getting up from sitting or laying or bending down. I asked a midwife I see at a parenting class and she told me it could be my blood pressure but my midwife appointment was just last week and my blood pressure was normal and it always is normal on the low end of the scale. Does anyone have any ideas what else the headaches might be from? I am 14 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child atm too.:confused:

I was told its not uncommon for your eyes to change whilst pregnant and again after you give birth. I would recommend a trip to the optometrist :yes:
