If u have a blood clot Hun and are pregnant u need to be seen today. If it breaks off and travels to your lung u can get a pulmonary embolism which can be very serious at the least. Have u spoken to your gp or midwife? What makes u think u have one?

Oh I didn't realise it was that important! and I had a herendous pain in my calf yesterday morning when I was laying down, lasted about 5 minuites and felt as if I'd torn a muscle, and since its been painful and tender, can't point my foot upwards etc, skin on my leg has gone really warm too! May just of strained a muscle though @suzie80

U need to see the doc asap there all signs of a clot. I was scanned twice after my last child as I had pain behind my knee and one leg was a little swollen. They can do a d- dimer blood test to see if u have a clot and an ultrasound. Warmth swelling and inability to turn foot up are signs of a clot. In pregnancy your more at risk. I have to inject blood thinners daily to prevent this but I have a dvt leaflet and those signs u are describing I would be in a&e
