    Pins and needles

    Hi again;

    At the moment I have pins and needles in both legs and both legs are so heavy they fill like they are filled with lead. Is this normal? Its being like it for the past 2 days, and Im starting to get over feeling like Im dragging my legs everywhere.

    TIA

    Bub might be sitting on a nerve, is s/he engaged yet?

    Altered sensation can also be indicative of hypertension (high blood pressure). Do you have any other signs of pre eclampsia such as headache, blurred vision, peripheral odema (swollen hands and feet)...?

    Given you have had these symptoms for two days, I would consult your care giver.

    Hope you feel better soon, not long to go now!

    Thanks nickle,
    Sprout is definately engaged, has been for a while now. I have had some pains from when sprout is on nerves, but normally it doesnt feel the same. At the moment, it kinda feels like Ive had a major workout and all my muslces are sore and heavy from it. Does that make any sense?
    Besides headaches (which Ive had the entire pregnancy) I dont think I have anything else you have listed. I have an appt with my ob on tues. Doubt I will get into see him before then though. But Ill give the hospy a call if it gets worse, especially over the weekend.
