For a migraine, is it ok for me to take baby aspirin if that's all i have at home?

OK but won't help: If you're trying to treat the pain of a migraine (?), you'd have to take an awful lot of baby Aspirin to get where you want to go! (at least 12 of them). Why not buy some Ibuprofen - it's not expensive.
