thanks everyone! well i was pointing my toes so i've stopped that and put on warm socks and had a sit down on the couch, has eased up alot now, i did notice it was alot worse cause of pointing my toes (i feel silly now lmao!)
i did have it with my other 2 pregnancys but it was always a dull ache and was gone by morning, i just thought it was just a cramp.
i love socks specially fluffy wooly ones so now i have an excuse lol
The midwives will ask you about this (they asked me every freakin visit) - it could be blood clot not a cramp. Just giving you something to be paranoid about ...
lol rumpledelf, have also thought of that too! pain is gone now after resting and making sure i had uggs and socks on. hopefully it wont be back for awhile. oh how the fun is beginning, i used to be woken up with leg cramps during the night with the last two so lets see how long it takes for that to kick in. i see my ob next monday will get him to check it out.
I get cramps most nights, much worse if I've done any exercise that day. Walking and stretching before bed helps. I drink electrolyte replacement after any exercise, and I take Cal-Mag supplements, three in the morning and one at night. I started on a lower dose, but have upped it, and it's much mroe effective.
Soaking your feet in Lectric Soda is also good.
