I had a cramp in my leg this morning it kept getting tighter and going away for over 5 min
Last night I got my first cramp right in my foot tho it hurted so bad oml
Drink LOTS of water, eat bananas and take a magnesium pill everyday and see how you feel. I had them SO bad, and now I haven't in months. I'm 37 weeks now and haven't had one since like 22 weeks.
I was having the same problem. It has to do with your water intake. You're dehydrated. I was shocked to hear that because I drink constantly. But since I have upped my water intake, I have not had a single leg cramp!! So drink more water momma! :) promise you'll notice a difference!
Bananas are loaded with potassium which helps replenish muscles, even if you don't think they need it. If you can't eat bananas, try a supplement or other fruits and veggies with potassium.
I get severe cramps in my calves so I talked to my doctor about it and he said it sounds like a combination of a calcium,potassium, and magnesium deficiency. I would bring it up next time you see your doctor.
I work nights and hubby works mornings so i dont get leg rubs :(
Omg me too. I lay on my side at night and every time I wake up to turn over my hips hurt Soooo bad !!
I have the same problem! Icy hot and a heating pad does wonders! Plus I ask my hubby to rub my legs before bed and that help greatly also! Hope this helps!
