Has anyone on here ever experienced a blood clot in their leg (calf)? If so, what were your symptoms?

Get it checked. I had sore calfs and they had me checked n on blood thinning shots n retested shortly after my c section. It's serious business. Hoping its not!!!

Thanks. I am going to get it looked at. There's swelling but no major swelling. I thought i had a really sore spider bite or a huge bruise but there is nothing there.

Typically, the symptoms are more swelling in affected leg, bruising, redness, cramping in leg, and pain when touched. If you suspect one at all its best to get checked out.

I've been checked for that twice this pregnancy because of extreem swelling, pain, and bruising in my left leg... thankfully I havent had one. If your doctor suspects it they will set you up with a leg ultrasound. Good luck.
