Restless legs?

Question

This is driving me absolutely nuts, I can't get comfortable to save my soul. 
I've read online that it could possibly be related to anemia. Which I seem to have other symptoms for as well. I don't have a doctor's appointment until the 18th at 16 weeks so until I can get it checked out I'm just going to try eating iron rich foods.

Please tell me I'm not alone with the restless legs though. Ugh

Answer

I've actually had it since I was a kid and it drives me crazy. A few things that have helped me over the years include doing a lot of walking during the way or exercising in some way, eating bananas at night and lying on my stomach until I'm pretty much asleep (although I soon won't be able let to due to my growing bump and then I don't know what I'm going to do). Restless leg is actually caused by brain chemestey so there are medications you can take (my mom and grandma do) but your doctor can tell you want is safe during pregnancy. Good luck, I know it sucks!!
