poor guy. had a long day yesterday. walked alot, also i got a new spinning wheel last week so treddling on that has not done my calfs any favours.
so after walking the 2-3 miles to Retail Park, with the intention of getting some maternity bits, wanted 3 things got 1 (bump support, woo hoo)
then we to Brewsters (kid friendly reasturant) for dinner, then home.
i was nackered, hot, in the sun too long with out a hat and had a huge headache so went to bed about 10-15 mins before DH, he comes up with DD2, im flat out, i didnt even hear him come up.
sometime later, im not sure how long, i woke in absolute agony, my right hip (the one i was laying on) was both numb and cramping (like calf cramps) at the same time. i could not move, i was whimpering, crying, sobbing, i didnt know what to do, all i could think about was the pain. DH woke up, i remember hearing the panic in his voice as he was asking me whats wrong?, whats up hunny, whats wrong, hunny wake up! i managed to sob out that the leg i was laying on was hurting me and i couldnt move and he would have to push me over. he did and i managed to get turned to my other side and the pain subsided. holy heck it was so painfull. i wanted DH to massage the cramp out but i couldnt form a coherent thought let alone talk much at that point but i some how managed to rub it myself and fell back to sleep.
the lessons i have learned
1) get a hat
2) dont spent too much time in the sun
3) dont lay on the same side for too long!
4) walking 3 miles while pushing a rather heavy toddler in a stroller is not a good idea at this point in my pregnancy.
5) make sure i give DH some standing orders to deal with cramps etc.
