2nd Trimester

Charlie Horse

Woke up suddenly this morning with a massive charlie horse in my leg... anyone else getting these or is it just a fluke thing and has nothing to do with pregnancy?

  • I get them all the time. My toes cramp up too.

  • I woke up this morning with one too! It was horrible. I also got one on my wedding night...not sexy at all. I was told to stretch more and eat bananas. Drinking lots of water can't hurt either.
  • i got 1 about 4 days ago it was horrable i couldn't walk for almost an hour and then i had light pain the rest of the day....but i have been eating bananas and yogurt ....haven't had anymore ...it might have just been a fluke but i really don't want that again.

    I eat bananas, yogurt and drink plenty of water...  It sucked though!  Just wasn't sure if it was pregnancy related or just a fluke.  I have had them before but it was usually after I had been on my feet a lot the day before.  (going to an amusment park or something)

     

  • Normal....but that doesn't make them hurt or suck less!  I read to flex your foot and toes toward your shin to stretch the muscle out....but I know if you don't do it early enough, then nothing can stop it!
