Im 39 weeks pregnant dilated to 1cm 60% effaced with contractions and a severe head ache for the last 2 days what can it be?

Check blood pressure: If you haven't seen your doctor today, it is important to get your blood pressure checked right away. Headaches can be caused by many factors, but headache can sometimes be the first sign of pre-eclampsia (toxemia). If your blood pressure is elevated, this is a very serious condition that poses an imminent threat to you and your baby, and requires immediate treatment.
