Happy New Year!!
By Summer0120 » Posted Jan. 1, 2016 1:08pm - 284 views - 5 comments

We made it to 2016 without a new baby in our home. My daughters were with their father for NYE this year, so the SO and I had a very nice date night. We actually spent most of the night playing Disney Scene It to try to stay awake until midnight. I had my first and only glass of wine this pregnancy, and then I was sleeping by 12:15. Lol. I have battled leg cramps in my calves a lot of this pregnancy. It's always when I'm sleeping, though. The last couple evenings, I've been getting them while awake from my hips to my toes. Enough to make me cry. They are so horrible. Then I woke up to extreme pain in my calves about a dozen times last night. I have no idea why they have become so much more frequent and severe! The night was great other than that. I woke up feeling pretty refreshed, and went to Wal-Mart for awhile. Now it's time to deep clean this house yet again. I feel like that's all I do!!

Happy New Year! Sorry about the leg cramps, I had those with my first pregnancy too and they are the worst! Hopefully not much longer before you get to meet your baby girl!! :)

I just keep hoping every new ache and pain is another sign of approaching labor. Lol.. Either way... Not much longer, and then my body can start healing!!

Oh man. I'm sorry. :( I hope they ease up for you soon.

Yep that's what I do, too. I eat a banana as my bedtime snack. And I'm always chugging water up until I fall asleep. Nothing seems to help at all.

I had leg cramps horribly when I was pregnant. My doctor suggested that I eat a banana and drink a glass of water about 30 minutes before I went to bed. It didn't kill the cramps completely, but it did help lessen them.

Happy New Year! It won't be too long before little miss is here for you!
