My left leg has been hurting all day like my circulation is being cut off. Anyone know what that could be?

Oh yes... I've had that since about week 6. Constant numbness and tingling in my left thigh. A heating pad is the best thing I have figured out for it. But unfortunately there is no permanent relief until probably birth and I'm 32w2d :-\

Where does it hurt? If you can feel it moving in a line down your leg or if it's concentrated in your glutes or in your thigh it's probably your sciatic nerve.
If it is, I suggest lying down on your side, on the opposite side of the pain. You might be down for a while, so make sure you use the bathroom and all first.

Baby is probably on a nerve. Maybe he's ready to come out. ;)
