Sore Calves?

homedivahomediva member
in August 2011 Moms
Is anyone else experience extremely sore calves? I feel like I just did a killer leg work out (which, trust me, I did not!). This happened for a couple of days about a month ago and now I feel it again. I have read about leg cramping in second trimester so I'm wondering/thinking that that's what this is? Anyone else?

    I've had quite a bit of leg cramps and pains too, but the hip pains have been the worst!  I have no clue how to get rid of them though so I'm no help.  I just wanted to complain with you!

    My calves usually hurt after very painful leg cramps that I sometimes experience. I've had leg cramps before pregnancy too, but these are just atomic and it hurts to walk afterwards (due to pain in the affected leg).

    Mine have been sore. I've heard it's pretty common to get leg cramps, especially in your calves.

    Mine are always sore first thing in the morning :( I've been getting cramps at night, too!

    I have been finding that a hot bath helps, and I also found a podcast with some exercises that are supposed to be good for leg cramps during pregnancy!

    Make sure you are getting plenty of potassium!

    My calves have just started being sore in the last 2  or 3 days. My hips are killing me at night now too! I'm worried to give myself charlie horses! I did so many times with DD! They are terrible! Eat some bananas!
