5.15 Am Scream

Early this morning when it was still very dark outside I woke up Shouting and grabbing my calf, ouch ah owey ahhh Nick... nick uhh ahhh ehhhh my leg my leg, Its cramping it hurts so bad, Omg what do i do... i am in pain...

this was the first ever leg cramp I have experienced, and it was so bad it woke me out of my deep sleep... I am talking I remember dreaming and then AHHHGHG someone help...

is this what labor will be like? I couldnt help but think that when this pain that i have never experienced took over my body and all i could do was roll around and squirm and grab at my leg hardly breathing begging nick to tell me what to do..

One can only hope not, Nick recomended that I stand up and get blood to it that I needed to drink some water and get my leg to the lowest part of my body for good blood flow, once i did it went away, however it left my leg tingling from right under my behind all the way down to my foot, Nick said it will feel like this for a while ( guess he knows leg cramps being a football player) but any who, ya its still got that tingly numb feeling....

but if this is like labor I also thougth to myself, I got through it, so if that will be the pain of a contraction just in another area i just have to keep telling myself I can get though it...


So it was a crazy Am today at 5:15 and I really hope to not have too many more of them but I have read that they are very common during pregnancy so we will have to see.

I actually get them quite a bit I'd say at least once a week even before getting pregnant I would get them. And they hurt and my calf would continue to hurt throughout most of the day. Good times:)
