I had bad leg cramps when pregnant with my daughter the midwife put me on Caltrate ( im not sure if you have that over there but its Calcium tablets) other then that Bi-carb soda works really well you just wet your finger a little dip it in and then on your tounge tastes gross but works

leg cramps are the result of your body pooling most of your blood circulation to your abdomen to help with pregnancy. your extremities come 3rd after your brain. your arms have less muscle so the deprivation of circulation is not as noticable as your legs with larger muscle mass. lack of potassium does not help matters also as lack of this affects how muscles work.To combat this wear leggings to bed to keep as much blood in that area as possible, if your legs are cold, this will affect circulation even more. have a warm bath before you go to bed. and if you still get them grab your foot in the middle and bend it towards you , this stretches the muscle and stops the cramp, dont point your foot forwards. i get them and they are horrendous , in both legs too.x
