Anyone else have this happen? What could it be?

I had been sitting on the computer, and got up to go do dishes. Well, I stood there for a minute and my right leg felt "quivery". Freaked me out. I am almost 20 weeks preggo and Im hoping its just the baby laying on something, but it doesnt seem like it would be big enough to effect a nerve or something in my leg :/  It kinda feels a little weak and Im scared to death! No other sx, (except my anxiety) I went back and tried to do them again, and it would come and go. Ugh! I do NOT wanna have to resort to a zanax :(  I did start zoloft a few days ago. Dont know if that matters. Thanks for any help!

Yea, I know realistically, its nothing major. Its gone and passed now. My leg feels fine. But this stupid anxiety kicked in and its driving me crazy. I mean the sx is gone gor goodness sakes, adn it was shortlived. I know its not life threatening, but thats the way my brain perceives it :(  I had to go on zoloft as my anxiety was sooo bad.  I didnt want to have to, but I really had no choice. I have zanax to be used as little as possible til my zoloft kicks in. Thanks so much for your help!

It's probably nothing but no matter what if you are that worried about call your OB. Thats why they make the big bucks. I had so many wierd things happen when I was pregnant with both my kids I thought for sure none of them could be normal.  It usually  is a nerve and sometimes when they are that little it takes a few days for them to finally move off it.  I had to stop my anxiety meds when I was pregnant. They told me it wasn't safe.  Its amazing how every  Dr. can be sooooo  different.
