Leg Cramps

I've had leg cramps here and there throughout my pregnancy, but today my right calf is hurting really bad. It feels like I worked out for hours, but I woke up this way. Is there anything I can do to ease the pain?

Oh okay. That makes sense, I've had a hard time keeping water down because of morning sickness, but now that it's easing up I should definitely be trying to watch my fluids.

Having cramps means your dehydrated and you should probably double your water intake to get it to stop. And bananas help a lot too. But the pain will have to stay unless you take Tylenol.

Thanks, I'll try it. I've been stretching it out all day and it still feels cramped.
