I just want to ask this I am 9 weeks and 3 days pregnant and i am now starting to get headaches first thing in the morning which now takes my mind of the morning sickness I just wanted to know if this isnormal as i never experienced headaches when expecting my daughter in 09.

Are you drinking enough? I get headaches when I'm a bit dehydrated and pregnancy makes me more dehydrated so I did get a few more headaches at the beginning.

Headaches are common during pregnancy. I suffered them with each pregnancy, usually early. I also suffer from sinus issues, so by the end I do get some whoppers due to extra blood volume and mucus production - too much going on for my poor little head

Here's a bit more info on NHS site - hope it helps
