Re: If your having problems with leg cramps, try using heat.
I have issues with leg cramps as well. My OB told me its because I am not getting enough calcium. Try taking a calcium supplement daily. I have taken it three days so far and so far no issues with my leg.

Re: If your having problems with leg cramps, try using heat.
I started getting them a couple weeks ago. first I ate bananas... it didn't stop. then I increased water intake by 3/4 of a liter (while still eating bananas)... they became MUCH more mild. Finally, I came home from vacation, and kept drinking the water (forgot to buy bananas) and have been eating a lot of yogurt and drinking milk again..... They're now GONE!
I think when I was on vacation (my diet was obviously different) I wasn't getting enough calcium or water......
hope this helps.......

Re: If your having problems with leg cramps, try using heat.
I think they mean warm compresses or a heating pad. My legs are starting to ache now too. Not so much fun!

Re: If your having problems with leg cramps, try using heat.
I was sufferring with leg cramps for a while. They had me up 4 and 5 times a night! I increased my water intake, at a bunch of prunes and raisins (I don't like bananas) and began sleeping on my left side. The water and prunes didn't help very much, but laying on my left side has really helped. I think it is partially to do with better circulation.
