I had that problem too. Someone gave me some advice, and I will forever be indebted to them! It helped SO MUCH. It was the only way I could sleep some nights. So, in order to Pay It Forward, I pass this little gem to you!
Before you go to bed, rub some pain relief cream (like Bayer or Aspercreme rubs) on your legs. (If it's your calves, focus on them.) Then wrap your legs with Ace bandages. Go to bed. Seriously, this worked like a charm for me.
If you try and it helps, my work here is done. If not, I'm sorry and I wish I knew something else! :)
I had that problem too, but I had pretty bad swelling from day one. I don't know what the remedy is, but if angryvixen has a suggestion, by ALL MEANS.. try it because that sucked.
As far as the complaining? I didn't want to complain either, but someone told me that being pregnant kind of gives you a license to complain like no other time in your life, so take advantage :)
Y'know what? Stitch is in there incubating away, and you're lugging him around every moment of your life until he's ready to make his debut. And even as he grows inside you and stresses your body, you STILL complain less than most of my friends who have a whole heck of a lot less going on with their bods.
Give Wes a hug and have a pickle for the little guy from Auntie Sabby.

Thanks you. Can't wait for this little one to be old enough to schedule a play date with Harper.
