Any others have any experience of ocular migraine????

I'm in the TWW and 8 DPO... had a quick Visual Migraine this morning (twinkly lights in the eyes and temporary obscured vision followed by a cracking headache!).

I seem to remember having the same before...prior to BFP and subsequent MC.

Has anyone else had this? I'm starting to wonder whether it could be a sign of implantation....but then EVERYTHING feels like a sign of pregnancy at the moment! so it could just be clutching at straws?!

I get occular migraines on and off... I didnt get them through pregnancy.

I think id write it off as a normal symptom until you get close enough to test.

Try not to over symptom spot as hard as it is - sometimes causes more un necessary stress...

Yeah apparently stress causes the migraines too so I'm stuck in a vicious circle hoping that everything is a sign of BFP and the stress is causing more signs....

I suffered with these early on in my last pregnancy! Even the doctor said they are common and will go after I deliver.. Which they did good luck xx

I get hormonal migraines! when I'm not on the pill I get them the day I ovulate (handy when I was ttc!! lol) and again the day I get AF! Thankfully I am back on the pill after the birth of my last baby 15 months ago!

I had less migraines while pregnant.

I get bad migraines but they stop when I'm pregnant xxx

Yeah, mine was stress related. Pressure behind the eye would cause tingling down my face. Felt as if id had a stroke lol.

Waiting for a BFP seems like the longest and stressful period of waiting ever.

I get migraines with aura and now that you mention it I remember talking about them at work just before I went on holiday and I'm sure I'd had 3 that month. I got my bfp a few days before I went on holiday. All 3 were within a week or so of each other but unfortunately I can't remember what part of the month it was as I never thought of them as a symptom. I think I've had maybe 2 since as well but thankfully none lately.

Thanks ladies, that's really helpful. I'm 50/50 hopefull and stressed. Suppose only time will tell!

 

[Squemers]

Looks like it was a sign!

 

[Lilmisshopeful]

Oh wow congrats. Gives me hope as I've had several crippling migraines the past week and thought I was out as usually they stop. Hope for me yet this cycle. Congrats again xxx

Having another one this morning. The more the merrier I say! Hopefully it means the little bean is holding on tight x

Yay congratulations! It is a sign then!! I only had them in the first few weeks so hopefully they'll ease off soon.
