Restless legs during pregnancy

Janet

I have been dealing with restless legs while being pregnant. It has become an every night thing and it is driving me absolutely insane!!!! It is keeping me from getting a restful night's sleep. I have been sleeping on the couch instead of in bed because I dont want to keep my husband up all night. My doctor gave me a medicine for it, and i feel like it has not helped at all. I also switched to a different prenatal vitamin that contains iron and magnesium as the one I was taking didnt contain either of them. I feel like that has helped slightly but not enough. I am so desperate for some releif at this point, I would love nothing more than to get a restful night sleep in bed with my hubby beside me. Even though we see each other daily, I just miss him not being able to sleep beside him. I cannot stand dealing with this for the rest of my pregnancy, I am 22 weeks and 4 days. I need help or I will loose my mind!!!
