Leg Cramps!

Hello guys, This morning at 5 I woke up to really bad leg cramps back and front of legs and in my feet. Lasting anything from a minute to 10 mins at a time on and off until I got out of bed at 8 ish. They have been feeling achy aswell and still cramp like. I have been traveling Mon and Fri to holiday driving on the motorway around 2 to 3 hours driving aswell as extra on holiday. Can this all to be to do with car travel?

I've been having terrible leg cramps at night for weeks but no significant travel on my end! They seem to not exist during the day 🤷‍♀️

I read it is more common at this stage in pregnancy… I experienced it with my first too, and it’s starting again now too. So painful, I read bananas help but I dunno if that’s placebo haha x

Magnesium tables help me with this as I was getting them too in the nights and the pain would linger thought out the day. Magnesium has really helped

Eat a banana before bed I swear by this 😂 it’s the only thing that helped in my first pregnancy and my cramps were sooo bad it felt like my leg was getting chopped of 😂 make sure you not dehydrated as that can cause it as well x

Thank you all, it's so painful! Can feel is on and off all day long! Never had it this bad before. Probably the driving hasn't helped because I can feel it in my bum cheek aswell x

100% feel your pain!! I get them every night and some nights it wakes me up, I need to get up and pace the room for a few minutes then lie back down. So sore but just keep telling myself it’ll be temporary (as if that actually helps) 😭🤣
