My first leg cramp and WHOA!
I woke up screaming at 5:30...I have never had a leg cramp. DH was so scared he thought something with the baby but I felt like I was going to push her out of my leg...that really hurt and was so severe. DH rubbed my leg and he kept telling me to relax. It still is sore and aside from bananas anything else I can do..I am 32 weeks here and falling apart. I went last week to the Dr. and she said I have Carpal Tunnel too!
I was doing so good and hitting a wall now.

Re: My first leg cramp and WHOA!
 They hurt!! I got them often. Bananas and stretching before bed help - and staying hydrated.

Re: My first leg cramp and WHOA!
Oh they are the worst!!!! Eat bananas, but I dont think they help much as I eat them all the time and I still have the leg cramps. Feel better and don't panic when you get another one!!

Watch the bananas because they make you constipated!!! You don't want to end up with hemmorids!!

Re: My first leg cramp and WHOA!
Eat a banana a day and a bottle of gatorade a day. That did the trick for me!
Also a warm bath and stretching before bed!

Re: My first leg cramp and WHOA!
I feel your pain!! I scared the pants off my husband a few nights ago....I am due any day now so he is already on edge and my sleeping hasn't been the best...so i was finally in a deep sleep (dreaming and all) and i got the worst leg cramp and was crying in my sleep and i thought DH was gonna fall of the bed....well i shook it off and went back to sleep to start another wonderful dream just to be woken up by my other leg...scared him again!! Both legs were sore for the following two days!!!
