holy leg cramps last night (well actually 6am this morning) shot me right up--in both calf muscles...i screamed out...poor DH probably thought something was really wrong...he helped me stretch them out (he's a massage therapist which is mighty helpful at times like that) but i think it scared the crap out of him as he was deep asleep after not getting home until 2am (poker night). left calf (worst one) is so sore this morning now...i think i overdid it yesterday with too much walking--seems when i walk a TON in a day and am on my feet all day and evening that i get really bad leg cramps. gonna take more rest time today and sit on my butt at work time :)
 
Yeah i think i ate a whole package of oreos and a gallon of milk overnight last night. Now good. I need to get this overnight snacking under control before baby comes, or i will never lose the weight.
 
I want Oreos!! OH just bought home an IOU for a shopping trip as bday pressie for hen I'm no longer preggers!

Brai-my SPD is getting outta control I struggle to get out of bed and the stairs are hard work. I can't swim cause it irritates it then I suffer the day after.

Watching wedding programmes now in sky while this cheeky monkey slides its foot down my ribcage!

I considered a TENS can hire in boots but I don think I'm going to bother.
 
what is the deal with the leg cramps lately???? ouch! i woke up and stretched and it about brought some tears outta me. my goodness! i think your right about the activity level increasing it. have been on my butt and nothing. had an appt yesterday and it hit all at once last night

and i know what you mean about the late night cravings. im not usually a sweets person, but it seems like every day im hitting something. DH does the shopping and i asked him to get me something sweet. oh my... i have been chowing on cookies, rice crispie treats, coffee cakes, twinkies, you name it...

sitting on my butt all day isnt gonna help all these sugar attacks. now he is coming home half day cuz i have another scan and bringing long john silvers:dohh: im gonna gain more weight than the first two trimesters put together this time.
 
Ouch for the leg cramps. I have noticed since drinking the RRLT more that im not getting any - i think the RRLT has a good amount of calcium in it.

I eat treats everynight :dohh: last night it was hagen dazs pralines and cream ice cream... im not buying any treats today cause i am out at home - so maybe if i don't have them i wont eat it!

Im almost at 60lbs gained :cry:
 
Natty yes that is pretty scary - I am still thinking about managing a newborn and then they grow so fast - can't imagine her being 2 months old let alone a year or more one day soon.

Brai it probably is baby getting bigger or maybe dropping further - hopefully the pain will be manageable and won't ast too long :hugs:
 
I dont know what it is with the leg cramps got them really bad with my first pregnancy and the only thing that seemed to work for me was eating pickles....I hate pickles. but was told by a physical fitness trainer that pickles will do the trick...and it does. I havent had them too bad this time around only once so far, doctor gave me muscle relaxers for it but havent even used them. Hope everyone is doing well today....wow February is almost half over ....Roll on March! :happydance:
 
Have also had a good deal of leg cramps _ I found either bananas or calcium and magnesium help for it but I still get them every now and then.

As for sugar cravings - even with the diabetes I have been craving especially ice cream - my sugars started dropping again in the last two days (it tends to do that after 36 weeks apparently) and so I have been able to have some - lol, now I want some more having written that.
 
DH has made me some magnesium oil to use during pregnancy so i rubbed some on my calves this morning--it should absorb and help those muscles relax some. I eat a banana every night in the middle of the night (i wake up hungry usually on my 3am run to the bathroom), and a banana has always been what I grab...and I've been drinking RRLT the past 2 weeks...so I don't know what it was but I think the excessive walking/standing yesterday is what did me in for sure. I haven't had any leg cramps in at least a month or so. My leg still feels really bruised and it's nearly noon. I injured this calf muscle too last spring by tearing the muscle which is why it's so sensitive to these cramps and doesn't recover as quickly--hoping to not get any cramps tonight--sometimes when i get a bad one like that i'll have residual ones for a few more nights...ouch.
 
I thought I was crazy for thinking that my round ligament pains have returned, and that I get sharp shooting pains in my area.....you just made me feel so much better Brai!!

mmmm, bake sale! you should totally indulge :thumbup:

Wow, there are going to be a few babies right away. So exciting!

I think I might have a lot of amniotic fluid, and maybe that is why I keep measuring ahead by so much. When I bend over, I can often hear/feel squishy sounds. If it feels squishy on the bottom and hard on top still, does that mean baby isn't dropping at all?

I keep thinking I am starting to lose my plug, but I think I am starting to lose my mind instead! From time to time I see little pieces of something in the toilet, as well as some discharge when I wipe. But then most other times, there is nothing at all. I don't think this baby wants to come out at all :(

Click to expand...

Sorry Melissa but this made me LOL :haha: I had some chunky bits in a urine sample i did the other day and though "oh maybe its something... " but i haven't seen a THING since... so it must of been a fluke. Lots of discharge though - but i have had lots of discharge the whole pregnancy.
 
I think i have just learned after being pregnant so many times, not to stretch my legs at all. That's when i get the charlie horses. That and someone once told me if you feel one coming on, hurry and jump on your feet and it will go away. Works for me every time.
starting to have some pain under my right breast. I know with preeclampsia that is a warning sign, buy also think it might be a cramp or something i ate. Going to take bp and see what happens.
 
Brai~ Hope your bp stays down!
