So I started a new job and I'm standing most of my day if not all of it and I'm having killer leg cramps! I'm 25 weeks pregnant and I know they come along with being pregnant.
They're all new to me and I don't know how to deal with them 😢😢
Help please!

the only time I get leg cramps Is in the middle of the night. but I stand or walk at work. I'd say take a warm bath after work with some Epsom salt in it

I would work 12 hour shifts most days during my pregnancy and I was standing all day. it was killer and my back legs and feet. just try Tylenol take warm baths and lay down every chance you get. I didn't even rest most of the time after work and I ended up with a few complications so I had to stop at six months. remember to take it easy when you can. :)

@icedtia, It hurts to stand at this point 😢 I'm hoping a nice hot bath will help me cause I'm exhausted and want to sleep!

I totally understand @alyjahjasmine I've been working retail almost 10 years and this last year has been the worst because of pregnancy. always tired and in pain. Def try the bath and maybe take 2 Tylenol ?

Maybe ask your doctor if they can get you a script for maternity compression legging type things , should help you out a lot !!

@jade90kdcicg, That sounds like something that would help a whole lot. I'll look into it thank you!

No problem. They will have to measure you and prolly order them to be sent you and for a bath buy some Epsom salt at a cvs or grocery store and soak in it :) @alyjahjasmine

stretch before going to work and after you get out. also when ever you can put your feet up . also if possible drink a cup of pickle juice it works like magic takes them away faster.
