Headache in pregnancy is a special situation. In pregnancy most painkillers cannot be taken as they harm the baby. Paracetamol is the only painkiller which is safe in pregnancy. But I would suggest you to just consult your gynecologist once as headache during pregnancy can be due to serious conditions like cerebral venous thrombosis.
