Dehydration does seem to have been her major trigger. There were even occasions when she was much younger (7, 9) when she had a really bad headache that turned out to be down to dehydration. It wasn't that I wasn't supplying drinks; she just didn't drink them and I'm not the kind of parent who polices every move. Kids!
