Good morning everyone :)

I'm currently 27 weeks pregnant with baby number 4, and for the last week or

so, I'm having aweful leg cramps all night long. Everytime I move it seems

I'm having to get up and walk it off...is anybody else having to suffer

through this? I have an appointment on Friday, so I plan to ask him then,

but I was hoping to get some insight here first...I'm exhausted....

Help!

Hi Pam!

I suffered from leg cramps a lot when I didn't get in my calcium supplements in

or didn't drink enough water. Are you taking your calcium? Drinking your

water? As soon as I got back to my routine of taking both of these, the cramps

did subside BUT in the meantime it was so hard as they were very painful & truck

me in the very early morning hours losing sleep as well.

leg cramps are often syptoms of not enought water, try drinking more water nad

call your dr, it's also a syptom of magnesium(?) defiecincy i believe too.

Two words: magnesium deficiency! EASILY cured! Magnesium CITRATE is

best for us; you can usually find the Solgar brand at a health food

store.

HI Pam,

Leg cramps (also known as charley horses) can be a sign of low

potassium. I had those in my first pregnancy with my son over 12

years ago. I was told to eat lots of bananas or foods with potassium.

You might try that......Good luck. I know how painful they can be!!!
