Was anyone a migraine sufferer pre-pregnancy? Auras?

I am not a regular migraine-sufferer, but with DD I had a couple actual migraines, and now with #2 yesterday and today I had migraines with aura, which I've never had ever, but it was definitely aura, I looked it up afterwards. What are you doing during pregnancy to treat your headaches? I'm doing what I did last time (via my midwife)- two extra strength tylenol and a diet coke. Not great, but it's all I have, you know? Thanks, and happy Thanksgiving!

With aura is basically no different than without, so XR Tylenol w/ coke is still the normal go to.  Good thing about an aura is that is gives you a better chance to knock it out before the bad pain starts.

Tylenol and caffeine are pretty much all you can do. I suggest darkness though.  Since that helps my migraines way more than drugs do.  Try to stay in dimly lit rooms and avoid florescent lighting at all costs.

Try to control your breathing and not panic.  I have to lay down in a dark room till it passes. Tylenol and caffeine don't even begin to touch my aura headaches.

Tylonel and caffine. It doesn't work as well as the other migraine meds, but it is better than nothing.
