Stupid leg pain! Ideas?

It is way too early not to be able to sleep! I have been up since 4 AM unable to sleep due to leg pain and gas! Is anyone else having real problems with leg pain when trying to sleep? I tried the snoogle but i am a tosser at night so it didnt work. I tried sleeping on the couch and every pillow in the house! Poor DH we have a queen and i keep spawling into his side trying to get comfy and jabbing him i the process. Any ideas?

On the plus side I did pin a ton of food ideas on pinterest! Late night/early morning food pinning always a good idea! Now I really want pancakes, sushi, and pinapple upside down cake!

Re: Stupid leg pain! Ideas?

  • I am having horrible hip pain while trying to sleep. I can only manage to sleep for about 20 minutes max per side before I have to turn over, and it takes me what feels like an hour of tossing and turning to even fall asleep for 20 minutes. And it's keeping my husband and dogs awake too, as they (the dogs) cuddle up against me at night. I have the snoogle too, but I don't think it's helping much other than for some back support. I haven't found anything that helps. I feel like I will get more sleep after the baby comes than I do at this point.

  • I am just starting to have some awful leg pain at night. I looked online and it said it was pretty common because of the increased blood flow. Some of the ideas it gave was to take a walk a few hours before you go to bed, do some stretching, eat more calcium, and use a body pillow. I did all those yesterday though but was still having pain last night that kept me up. No fun :(
