Calf pain/tightness?

Question

Anyone else experiencing tightness in your calves? I haven't had any leg cramping or Charlie horses but my calves are sore every day. I work out 5 days a week but I'm keeping it low impact so I don't think it's from working out. Asking because when you "log" on Glow, "leg pain" falls under unusual symptoms. Should I be worried? Is this happening to anyone else?

Answer

I don’t think that’s is a pregnancy Symptom unless you aren’t drinking enough water. Drink plenty and try some stretches or massage. 🤞🏻

Answer

You might just need to do some stretching. Get the blood flowing a little. Try laying on your back and have someone stretch your legs one at a time as high and far back as you can handle and hold that position for like 10 seconds each

Answer

I often got leg cramping and Charlie horses during my first pregnancy and only at night when I was sleeping. It started happening about halfway into my pregnancy.

Answer

A nurse suggested that I wear compression socks to help with leg pain. Unless your leg gets a swollen spot or changes color it's probably just your muscles.
