is anyone else suffering from bad leg cramps??? It only seems to be at night but it keeps waking me up night after night. Any ideas how to ease it??

Pillows, and even that doesn't work some nights

I had these starting about two weeks ago. Mine have subsided for the most part at this point. You can try eating some bananas (yellow but still with a teenie bit of green. The potassium in them should help and make sure you are drinking water. Both of these are contributing factors to muscle cramps.

How are you fluids? Keeping hydrated is meant to help.

As dr dees mrs said - keep well hydrated.

i've heard a glass of milk is good 4 leg cramps, also hold ur leg up in the air and tilt ur toes back.

Stretch your leg out with and move your foot up and down.. also try hot water bottles, helps loads

i also get really bad heartburn when ive drunk a cuppa tea or coffee..so ive been on dilute pop throughout the pregnancy.
