Every morning for the past few days. Its at the top of his head. In time it does go away. Idk if he's not sleeping well or not. At first, I just blew it off as a headache but now I'm starting to Ger concerned.
I'm calling the doctor at 8. Just for some reassurance.
He's 7. Has this happened to anyone else?
Update:
Doctor appt earlier. He will have a MRI and had some blood work done. His eye is doing something weird when he looks up. Doctor noticed it during the follow the light test. It doesn't want to move up. So that with the headaches. MRI. Probably tomorrow she said.

Quoting LovelyCorrupt:
Is he drinking enough water?

Quoting TrouserMouse:
When I wake up in the mornings with headaches, it is ALWAYS due to dehydration.

He said it feels like the top of his head is being squooshed.
