Pregnancy Leg Cramps
Funny story from last night:
I woke up early this morning and did a little stretch.
Usually I can feel those leg cramps coming on and stop mid-stretch, but for some reason I guess this morning I wasn't awake enough to stop before it hit!
OHMYGAWD...it was horrible. I screamed out in pain and shot up in the bed. My husband starts jerking off his CPAP mask and reaching for my belly. He thought I was going into labor, I suppose. It took a few seconds before I could get out that it was a "charlie horse" (that is what we call those kind of muscle cramps in your leg). He then tries to rub it. I screamed NO! That only made it hurt worse.
I finally got over it and then the little one was yelling she wanted something to drink so I had to get up and get her something to drink and could bearly walk. It was quite a sight. My leg is still pretty sore even still.
Just thought it was funny...husband was about to pack a bag to head to the hospital, I think! Heh heh

You get those more when you get pregnant? YUCK! I get those when I go out drinking.

Oh poor guy! I hate hate those cramps especially because your leg is so tense!
Heh heh...Bec I guess you could just consider it a trade off since you won't be doing much drinking when you are pregnant! :)
His CRAP mask.. that is too funny. You are supposed to rub a cramp, you have to work it out. It will hurt but makes it go away faster. Well sometimes that is...
David, that says cPap mask...
