Take magnesium for restless legs or high blood preasure?

Question

I've had restless legs pretty bad for several weeks now (31w) and now my blood pressure is getting weird. In my first pregnancy I had RLS and ended up with gestational hypertension during labor and after. I'm curious if folks have used My supplements for either/both conditions? I'm going to ask my doc Monday as my prenatals don't have My.

Answer

My doctor told me to try magnesium for RLS and also more water. The water helped before I found magnesium.

Answer

I’ve had it for both and it works great! I’ve used it at home for restless legs and when I went into labor with my son I had HELLP syndrome so my blood pressure was really high, and they hooked me up on to a magnesium drip while I was in labor.

Answer

I use magnesium oil for rls and it really really helps!

Answer

I use coconut water for RLS. Naturally high in potassium and magnesium.

Answer

I don’t have a clue about RLS, but my midwife had me take it for headaches. I wound up super constipated and she suggested I switch to epsom salt baths instead. I’m getting the same amount of magnesium without the side affects.
