Leg Cramps during pregnancy

Another complaint is leg cramps which happens because of poor circulation, fatigue, compressed nerves and an imbalance of essential minerals. Don't point your toes as this only brings on the cramping. Warm compresses, massage and gentle exercises to stretch your legs and feet muscles are helpful. Diet evaluation to check what is lacking on your part and your doctor may advise calcium supplements to change the balance of minerals in your system can help too.
