Having a baby is a wonderful time in a woman's life. But pregnancy usually comes with all sorts of discomforts as the body makes the changes necessary to carry and birth a baby. A Pregnanacy Headache is among the leading complaints of pregnant women.

Headaches may occur at any time during your pregnancy, but they tend to be most common during the first and third trimesters. An increase in headaches during the first trimester is believed to be caused by the surge of hormones along with an increase in the blood volume circulating throughout your body. Headaches during the third trimester tend to be related more to poor posture and tension from carrying extra weight. Headaches during the third trimester may also be caused by a condition called preeclampsia, which is high blood pressure during pregnancy.

There are many other causes of headaches during pregnancy such as dehydration. It is very important to keep yourself well hydrated with plenty of water. Lack of sleep is also a major culprit, and your body will require extra sleep. And the really big one cause, stress. Along with the normal stress you had before pregnancy, you now have the added anxiety of a new baby on the way as well as all the changes your body is going through.

And of course there are the food triggers that may cause a pregnancy headache such as chocolate, processed foods or anything salty like peanuts that may make you retain water. Food triggers will vary by individual so you need to be aware of what foods may cause you discomfort.

There are several things you can do to try and prevent a headache, it is certainly better to prevent the headache than to suffer from one.

	Plenty of Rest and Relaxation
	Exercise like Walking is Excellent
	A Well Balanced Diet
	Plenty of Water to Prevent Dehydration
	Stay away from Caffeine (which you should do whether you get headaches or not)
