Anyone diagnosed with migraines?

I was diagnosed with migraines in college.  It starts with the aura that usually grows until I can't see.  That's followed by hours of intense pain and nausea.  I figured out that muscle strain in my shoulders and upper-back was the trigger, so once I stopped sitting certain ways the migraines stopped.  Until I got pregnant... I have had four migraines since I found out I was pregnant.  Even when I had severe migraines in college I would usually only get them once a month (not around my period).  Now I'm wondering if hormones or something could be triggering it because I can't seem to figure out why I keep getting them.  Does anyone know if the chances for migraine headaches goes up with pregnancy?  What do you do to help with the pain and fatigue when you get them?
