They say is can be caused by low calcium so maybe that is why the milk???
I had it constantly through out my pregnancy but mostly of a night time. Especially in the last trimester is was a regular thing for me to cry myself to sleep out of frustration. I slept with with a wheat/heat bag most nights which was very hard in the middle of summer (I was due in Feb this year!! And that's summer here in Australia). But also, like you did a massage from hubby or (kinda strange) he would wrap my legs up firmly in a towel or sheet.... kind of like swadling my legs lol.
Talk to your doctor I didn't realise that some women find relief with calcium supplements.
Good luck hope you don't suffer as much as I did.... although I have always gotten restless legs not just when I was pregnant but prepregnancy it was maybe once a month not EVERY night |
