What natural remedies works for headaches in pregnancy?

What do you do for a headache during first trimester?
I am 5 weeks pregnant and had a horrible headache last night! I didn't take anything, just dealt with it. It felt like my head was going to pop off. Is this common, and what can I do to relieve it?

Thanks!

2. Non naturally you can take TYLENOL....otherwise I use ice packs following a warm bath. If your headaches continue I would consult with your health care provider. Best of luck!

3. Take tylenol (or any no name acetaminophen). Acetaminophen is perfectly safe during pregnancy. Just avoid Advils and Aspirins.

4. Sometimes heating up a wet towel in the microwave, then laying down and putting it under your neck helps me. I did some reading online and found out that tylenol/acetaminophen in low doses is ok. Ibuprofen is not. You could call your doctor and talk to them about it.

5. The two most common things are rehydration and getting good sleep. Other than that it is ok to take acetaminophen during pregnancy
