The causes could be increased blood volume, hormonal changes and the initial stresses. The causes of headache are entirely different during the last three months. In this period, the extra weight that the pregnant woman has to carry, poor posture, not getting sufficient sleep and anxiety could be the reasons for headache.

For the pregnant woman, over the counter medications for headache relief should be the last resort. That too should be considered after proper consultation with your family doctor. Positive steps are the only answer.
