Question: headaches since first child...spinal during childbirth...result of spinal?...

Answer:

Dear Sherry,
I'm sorry, but nobody is going to be able to answer that question without conducting a thorough physical examination. Is there any history of Migraine in your family? Another possibliity is that the hormonal changes in your body following childbirth have started triggering Migraines. Please take care of yourself by making an appointment with your doctor or, even better, a headache specialist. There's a link to our directory of recommended doctors and clinics below.
Good luck,
Teri Robert
