This used to happen to me, the only thing I found that helped it was sleeping with my feet raised. Either on a few pillows or my big winnie the pooh teddy lol Hope is stops soon x

See since I posted about this I haven't had any, weird.

I didn't even get these I don't think until later on in my last pregnancy that's why I was so shocked when they started, same with heartburn, never got that till I was 30 weeks + the last time.

I'll have to try the pillow thing! xx

Hi all,thought this might help......

My mum sometimes gets cramp in her whole body all at the same time which contorts her whole body.She now controls this by having a big glass of tonic water at night time before bed but it has to have something called "quinine"(not sure on spelling) in it.

Have a look down the drinks aisle as i think it might also be in ginger beer?

Bananas are supposed to help too apparantly because of the potassium content
