I just want to chew!

I almost feel like I'm teething, theres no pain but my mouth just wants to move and crunch and chew and gnaw. I feel like a beaver! I've heard of restless legs but restless jaws???

It's this overwhelming urge and tingling sensation when you're at rest. I literally have to scissor kick my legs at night and I get very little sleep and the feeling is so intense it makes me cry out of frustration. I asked my OB what to do and he said to take a Benadryl to get to sleep!!!

What's it like? Like do your legs involuntarily move or do you just feel like you have to move them?

In my first trimester I had to constantly suck on candy or I felt like crap, so I kinda relate. Always had to have it.....went on for almost 7 weeks : /
