I get that on my right side as well. Stretching helps me.

It's probably the baby putting pressure on your sciatic nerve. I experience this on my right side more. Sitting with a heating pad for about 15 minutes a couple times a day helps me. It also seems to lessen if I prop up the leg on the offending side while I sleep on my other side.
