Hi Jaspire,
You are hoping for boy or girl? I'd prefer boy actually. Different people different preferences.
For me hoping for baby boy is such that next time I'll be spear from the naggings asking me try for boy cause hubby side seems abit more to the traditional kind. Although they say have baby gal is good nowadays cos next time don't need to wash army clothes and support them for so many yrs. True also. But I don't trust the old folks. I see so many older generation always pushing their DIL to try for baby boy even if they have 2 daughters already. I hope this will not happen to me...
But baby gals according to the beliefs are generally less active compared to boys. And plus point is, it's always easier to get baby gal's clothing during sale. Some of my friends always complain that there's always more baby's gals clothes than boys during sale. I did notice that before when I go shopping. So many pinkie stuff on those racks. Even at those Take square sale if you look down from above, you see so much more pink stuff than others... -_-'(But for myself, I am still hoping for a boy though, so that I have the freedom to shut factory if I decide that I'm not having anymore babies.)
Coming to headaches and migraines, you might want to try cold compress. Meaning, like when we have fever, u put those cold packs on the forehead. Might help cause I did read up on first aid last time that sometimes headaches are caused by the muscles contractions, dehydration or stress etc, triggers the nervous system causing headaches. So maybe you can try getting a cold pack from those drug stores, store inside the freezer and use it when headache strikes. I ever read on one of my friend's pregnancy blog that she used ice packs to calm the headache. So hopefully this solution can work on you as well.
Btw, if we get headaches, can we still take painkillers during pregnancy? I never ask my gyne yet...
