leg pain

I am 26 weeks pregnant.
No matter how tired i am, when i get into bed my left leg seems to be so restless. It doesnt cramp it just feels like i need to stretch it and walk around.Its stopping me from going to sleep every night. Does anybody else have this issue.

What helps me is if I put my left foot and my right leg by the knee.  Put your elbow on the left knee put just a bit of pressure down on it ever so often for about 30 to 45 minutes before bed.  I do this to both leg every night and I haven't had any issues since I started doing this.

My left leg is the pain on that cramps too. Drink tons of water, that's what helps me. If i drink anything sweet during the day I'm more likely to get them too.
