Anyone else get these?

For a while now I've been getting these muscles twitches/reflex responses in my legs. It'll feel like someone has stuck a tiny pin somewhere and my whole leg will twitch. I get it in both legs and only since getting pregnant.

Am I the only one?

The other thing is that I think I'm the only woman in the history of pregnancy who is NOT hot almost ever. I feel like a freak of nature! Is anyone else not a self-heating oven?

  • I dont get hot either which is REALLY REALLY weird seeing as I was like a furnace pre-pregnancy. Like all the time. Now I only get hot if I exert myself.

  • Lucky ladies! Sometimes I have to book myself a conference room at work and crank up the a/c just to get by! And I was ALWAYS the chilly one before!
  • Temperature wise i'm fine.

     The leg twitches: never knew I had them till I started dating my husband he says its normal to be kicked at least 3-4 times a night. the only time they really bother me is when I'm trying to fall a sleep and they are most common if I stay up past a certain point of exhaustion. Try going to sleep just a little earlier and stretching before bed sometimes that helps me.

  • I am constantly hot to the point where DH tells me I should sleep outside so I'm no help there.  Just be cautious to watch if you get colder easier than normal (I know it's hard to tell in winter time) because I think that's a sign of pre-e.  As for the leg twitches I have had RLS the last few months and it is so annoying!  It even happens at work when I've been sitting too long and I've bonked my leg into my desk a few times and bruised ouch.
  • I get the pains in my legs like you mentioned. They are really annoying.

    Can't say the same for the not hot thing - I am constantly on fire!!
