Leg pain and veins have made an appearance :-/

Ceventa

This weekend I started feeling something new, a tightness all the way from my upper butt cheeks down to the tips of my toes. It started on Saturday after I was walking around the house a lot helping DH get ready for his business trip. The only thing that alleviated it was when I would sit on the floor and stretch. I sat there for a while stretching to the point that DS joined in on the fun. Sunday I started to feel the same thing and floated in the pool for a while to help the tightness. I've also noticed an increase in the appearance of veins in the back of my calves.  A combination of a few clusters and long veins, not pretty to look at. Thankfully my parents were with me most of the weekend since DH was away so I kept my feet up as much as possible, but not happy about this. Baby girl has been feeling like she's sitting low and putting pressure on my lower tummy, so I'm guessing that's the cause. Anyone else feeling this in their legs and seeing veins?

I've been having major vein issues. I bought compression stockings that have really helped. Because the veins hurt from my ankle to my thigh I have the kind of stockings that look like full on pantyhose (with a non-tight panel for the belly area).

By the end of the day, my legs ache like crazy.  I try to walk at lunch to keep the blood moving but I still wake in the night to bad cramping.  Compression socks have helped but now it is going to be 80 degrees here so I think I will need to find something else.  Bananas have worked too

I have a big vein on the inside/back of my knee on one place.  Last time it was just a bump, this time it looks like its going to leave a mark.

I had a couple little ones with my dd but this time they are a little more noticeable.  I haven't had any pain from them yet, but I'm afraid of what the summer holds.

I got a clump of spider veins on my shin with DS. They've just gotten worse this time. They don't hurt, but the guy who gave me a pedi the other day felt the need to push really hard on that spot as if he was massaging my leg. That hurt like a bitch.

After we're done having kids, I will absolutely be getting these veins taken care of. My legs are crazy pale and the veins are glaringly obvious.

We are 99.99999% sure we're done after two so getting my veins taken care of is my birthday gift to myself next year.

Samesies. My legs are ghostly and it's super embarrassing. I'm not sure if it's as noticeable to everyone else as it is to me. Maybe the shockingly white color distracts them enough from the clusters of spider veins everywhere. I've tried sunless tanner but nothing seems to help color stick to them/hide the veins.

Yep, I'm going to have these taken care of once LO arrives. I live in Florida so shorts are a must! LOL
