Had my Glucose test a few weeks back but I failed. Again doctor told me to come empty stomach. They took a sample of blood. Again told me to have BF and took another blood sample after two hours. I pass on that test. Now the doctor is asking for one more Glucose test. Uff.

 

Hi all,
How s health and baby? I am fine in india, two more weeks to fly back USA. Past one week I am getting leg cramps in night. I can't sleep whole night. Do you have leg cramps and what do you do for relieving it?

 

Terrible cramps I used to have . Iam sorry but nothing soothes at that time . You can ask the doctor about calcium and magnesium I take .might help. My husband used to get up hearing my groaning voice and massage the leg that used to relieve it a little faster , mine was mainly due nerves . Dr said it happens and will reduce with time . Iam unto 34 weeks and still before sleeping hope it dsnt happen . Tc

 

Yes i am also suffering from leg cramp at night while sleeping. I quickly get up from the bed and stand up. As soon as i stand up it goes away. But getting up quickly from the bed is big task for me. I am having pain on my pelvic area. So it is very difficult for me to move while sitting or sleeping.

 

@deepideepi,
Even I have cervix pain. I can't lift my leg to wear inners,pant and also lift my leg to sleep on bed. Every night I couldn't sleep Bcoz of leg cramp. I tried soaking my leg in warm salt water, taking bath in night. My doctor asked me to take calcium and magnesium tablet if I have leg cramps. I dnt know whether I can take it daily. I am in india and she is in USA. I took those tablet once when I couldn't bare. I am using belt for cervix pain.

 

Hi Deepthi,

Can you please tell me the name of the brand of belt you are wearing? are you getting any relief from it?
I am having a lot of groin pain, Its very tough for me to change positions while sleeping..on my last visit to OBGYN she suggested to try belt which I though she was kidding because we generally wear belt after delivery...
Thanks!
