Calf cramps...

[prettypixels]

Well, not just my calves, but mostly... today I woke up with a muscle cramp in one calf and it has kind of been there all day. Not actively cramping, but feels like it's ABOUT to cramp. So wierd! I took extra calcium/magnesium last night... anyone else have any other suggestions for things that can help with this? I'd hate to be cramping up once this baby decides to make her grand entrance...

I have been having cramps the past few weeks..mostly in my calfs, but sometimes in my hands and feet.
i was told bananas help..must be the potasium?
not sure...

when I get cramps like this I eat about 2 bananas a day--and it seems to help a lot... I've heard it is the potassium...

Besides stretching, I try to up my intake of water. I don't know why but it seems to work!

i usually get the cramps at night, and usualyl its when it ry and stretch and omg i cant move my leg for like 10 min then it kinda feels sore and weird for a while, only once has it cramped up during the daytime, and ive heard from numerous people to eat bananas so that must be it ive been doing that and havent had any recently
