Leg cramps at night

[Momma2be4x]

Have any of you ladies figured out a way to avoid leg cramps.I know dr.s arent sure what causes them but have any of you found the secret to avoiding them once you've started getting them?

Bananas, water and a little more dairy helped me! I noticed I only get them when ive been in the heat a lot or ive done a ton of walking. Im sure living in flip flops doesnt help. But more than 64 oz of water and a banana a few times a week helped me a lot.

Calcium deficiency can also cause leg cramps...

I have terrible leg cramps at night as well (I wonder why always at night?) And my doctor recommended to take magnesium. Since I'm taken iron as well, she asked me to make sure I don't take them at the same time. Can't really tell jet if it helps though...

Bananas and water...easy enough. I can do that :)

Dehydration may cause the cramps.....so be sure that you are having plenty of water and other fluids. Moreover, having ptussium rich food such as bananas may also help.
