Restless Leg Syndrome

Do any other mommas have RLS? I've had issues before getting pregnant, but now it's almost unbearable. What's the best way to get some relief?

    I just give in and move them around, flex and relax the muscles.. Can't say for sure if it helps or makes it worse! DH massages sometimes and that feels amazing

    I've found that putting lavender oil or Young Living's Peace and Calming blend on the bottom of my feet really helps. And I've suffered two other pregnancies with RLS.

    I would sometimes get this before pregnancy and now in the third tri I have noticed it is worse! Usually it is in the evenings when I am winding down for the night. I tend to just go to bed when it starts because thats the only thing that relieves it for me.

    I got this a couple of months ago and it was horrible! I found that switching to a prenatal
    that has iron in it helped significantly, as well as adding more iron to my diet, like eating high iron cereal.

    I second the iron comment. More iron decreasd mine drastically.

    Thank you!!! I'll have to try these. The doctor did say I was slightly anemic, guess I have to be more diligent in taking my iron pills.
