RLS symptoms?

Hi all, this is baby #2 and both times I get what seems like restless leg syndrome very early on. It started today and it's driving me crazy. Last time I had to sleep with a heating pad under my leg for weeks. Anyone else get this? It's so bizarre!

    I had it bad my first pregnancy as well as a phantom numbing pain in my ribs but not this early on, late second tri. Hoping it either holds off longer or presents around the same time, I'd hate to deal with it this early on!

    I have it really bad too. My OB recommended magnesium cream (I got some at whole foods- called "CALM" magnesium cream) on my legs at night along with one of those vibrating massagers (I just bought the cheap ones at wal mart made for back/shoulders). These together make me feel SO much better. I don't know why but mine is only at night and drives me crazy!

    Magnesium deficiency is what it sounds like. Get a good quality supplement, or try the oil that you can massage onto your skin.
