Restless Legs

Every night, as I'm going to sleep, my legs start getting really jumpy. Like I keep feeling the need to tense and release. It just started happening last week. I've tried having my boyfriend massage them as I try to go to sleep, but it only works for like 10 minutes. Sleep meds don't work. And it happens even when I try to sleep during the day. Any advise from anyone?

I have found that caffeine makes mine worse (even just a little bit). I stretch before bed to help it too.

Thats a sign of a calcium insufficiency.

My doc had told me baths could kead to bladder infection so to stay away from them also massaging the legs will make the cramps worse. try stretching before you go to bed eating bananas and stretching your toes up

Try calcium/magnesium supplements.

Restless leg syndrome? I have that. I take a warm bath nothing over 95. I heard it bad for the baby if ant hotteelr. Just warm bath and you sit in it for a little. It helps with my restless legs. It soothes your muscles
