Leg Cramps

britmendz

My husband and I are trying to get preggos and I've had the most painful leg cramps. Hurt to the of tears and my pain tolerance is high. Has anyone experienced this in the very early stages of pregnancy?

We are still playing the waiting game to see if we are with child or not. But this leg cramping is very strange. Haven't had one in years. Any advice?

You need to drink more water.

Eat a banana & stretch. I didn't have any leg cramping that was pregnancy related until 3rd trimester.

Extreme leg cramps can signal magnesium deficiency though. You might want to go hardcore on your fruit & veggies!

Are there early pregnancy symptoms where the pain is ever to the point of tears? I feel like we get so many symptom spotters that are writhing/crying because of the severity of the pain.

I would think serious pain = doctor. Especially if you think youre pregnant... not thebump board...

Leg cramps are not a sign of early pregnancy. More commonly its an electrolyte imbalance. Eat a banana, eat some spinache or drink a Gatorade. Drink plenty of fluids throughout the day. Stretch. If you are wanting information on ttc lurk and lurk some more but be forewarned we don't symptom spot here.

Legs cramps as a sign of pregnancy? Really? REALLY?!

I developed an ovarian cyst on my left ovary after a laparoscopy and instantly after the procedure I developed leg cramps that would visit me on each period. They were painful to the point of tears. They would go away once my period started with full flow. I don't mean to scare you but what I'm trying to say is, leg cramps are not a pregnancy symptom. If the pain is unbearable, you must bring it up with your doctor to see what's causing it. Any pain you can't seem to handle is often a sign something is not how it should be. Good luck.

Leg cramps mean triplets, remember?

It does not mean you're preggers *however* if you played your cards right you could have made a claim against their insurance and gotten an all expenses paid trip to Jamaica...which is almost better...
