Past few days my legs have this weird burning feeling, esp at night. Period is 4 days late so my mind is going everywhere. Has anyone felt this as an early sign?
Yes, it can happen because of the extra weight pressing on your nerves. I found that doing light evening walks and staying hydrated helped me a lot, keeping me active till my normal delivery. Keep your doctor in the loop though!
I had gestational diabetes and noticed my tummy felt very heavy and legs would burn when my sugars spiked. Be very careful with your diet, avoid heavy carbs at night, and check with your gynac if you need a quick glucose check.
Oh my dear, I totally understand how uncomfortable and frustrating that burning feeling can be when you are already trying so hard. Please take some rest, put your feet up, and pamper yourself with a gentle leg rub. Speak to your doctor soon so they can give you some relief, sweetie.
Burning sensations in legs can happen due to vitamin deficiencies or bad posture during pregnancy. I'd say don't ignore it and get your B12 and D3 checked at your next clinic visit. Make sure you're wearing comfortable flat shoes.
I had terrible leg issues and numbness right up to my C-section delivery, and even during recovery, it took a few weeks of gentle walks to go away. Do mention it to your gynac during your checkup so they can suggest some safe stretches.
It could be due to poor circulation or nerve pressure, which is common. Try soaking your feet in warm water with rock salt and keep them elevated on pillows when sleeping, but if there is swelling or redness, please ask your doctor immediately.
Haan na, mere leg muscle mein bhi ajeeb garmi aur burning hoti thi raat ko. Ho na, massage karwane se thoda aaram milta tha. Par doctor ko ek baar batana mat bhulna!
Pregnancy makes your legs feel like they are on fire, and now that the baby is here, I am running on 2 hours of sleep anyway! I used to put ice packs on my calves just to sleep for an hour. Mention it to your doctor before your legs fall off, haha.
