Anyone else deal with restless leg syndrome? My mom has had it for years & it is hereditary, but I…

My mother in law has it every night pretty much for many years. I'm starting to have it here and there due to pregnancy and now I feel really bad for her cause I see why it bothers her so. I hate it! Im not sure of any relief from it.

@justtkristin, It is horrible, is it not? It's like you're on the edge of falling asleep then bam! It hits you! And it's such a weird feeling. People always ask me what it feels like, but it's just one of those things that are hard to explain. You just have a random urge to jerk your legs. I hate it so much!

i get it a lot..had it with my first pregnancy and now with this one. the best relief i hace found is getting my hunny to rub the muscles where it hurts (back of the leg) that usually takes away most of the pain

@adaraa126, I try to rub my own legs, but it seems most of the time it makes it worse!

yeah it doesnt help when i do it myself either lol..ask your man to do it!

@rebalouise, seriously it does! Right. Mine will start like when I first fall asleep then I wake up with my legs slinging everywhere because the sensation and I can not get comfortable for the life of me! Ahh so frustrating. It is just random and don't know what day it will do it. I just say to myself this is plenty of practice to be awake at all hours of the night when baby arrives haha. That's the only pro I see. I hope you can find some relief and if you do please share! :)

@adaraa126, I'll have to make him the next time! Hopefully it helps! @justtkristin I guess that is true! Lol if I find any relief I'll be sure to let you know!!

@rebalouise, thanks girl! Hope you can find some relief if not just embrace the never sleeping. :) it will prepare! Haha have a good day.

@justtkristin, haha! Thank you! You too :)

Yes I have it bad at night now that I'm pregnant, so annoying OMG. Twisting and turning all night trying to get comfortable.

@dmitchell, Right?! My husband probably wants to punch me for tossing, turning & jerking all night long 😊

@dmitchell, haha!!! Me too! I'm like "yeah you sleep good you bitch😒😡" haha
