Anyone peeing every 2 or 3 hours or having leg cramps?

I pee every 2-3 hours each nite and at least once a night I have leg cramps. Its simply NOT FUN.....Im at 33 wks and realize this is probably just practice for when my son gets here. But why this little guy decides to apply regular pressure to my bladder like he does just KILLS me lol. Im still working (and that is getting old too) but Im done at the end of this month. Im taking vacation and then maternity leave and then Im seeking employment doing something from home! I welcome any suggestion. :-)

I am 32 weeks and I urinate more than I sleep at night. It's kind of ridiculose but, I am used to it by now. What I can't get used to is the excruciating leg spasms that happen every time I stretch my legs in my sleep. They are so bad I wake my partner up screaming. Last night it happened to both legs and the muscles are still sore. Well at least I have labor to look forward to!

um....yeah...yeah...and yeah....

Had leg cramps like crazy for awhile.  Doc told me to drink more water, so I'm trying to do that and it has helped.  I must get up 10 times a night to pee.  I wonder if that's God's way of prepping us for nighttime feedings :)

I too have made many trips to the restroom lately.  It seems like everytime I stand up - but I have gotten the cramps too and I agree with pmperez- they happen when I stretch my legs in bed (point toes down).   I catch myself starting to do it and then I feel the muscle tighten and I quickly stop to avoid the pain (lol).

I had leg cramps really bad for a while and then I figured out what was happening, in my sleep I was stretching so now I either catch myself or I stretch my legs without my toes pointed down...my legs always seem tight now and its probably because I cant stretch them but Id rather not have them cramps they hurt BAD
