I'm currently 16 weeks pregnant and every night I had a hard time to go to bed. Will stay awake till 6-7am in the morning then only able to sleep cause getting really tired. This is cause my legs has this feeling of being pulled when I'm dozing off. Sometime my husband will help me to massage my lower leg and the feeling will disappear but recently even massage also this just won't go away. I don't drink milk and only supplement I took is gestacare prescribe by doctor. Is is because of low calcium intake? How to solve this problem?

Same here. I am 16 weeks and napansin ko din na hirap ako makatulog pag gabi at uhawin din ako kaya panay inom ako water at panay ihi din pero pinaka late ko na tulog siguro is 1:30am. Naka feel din ako ng pain pag na stock ako sa left side humiga kaya from time to time gumagalaw ako pag ngalay na nakatulong din sakin yung pag elevate ng leg (pillow in between legs) para ma relax yung muscles at nawawala naman sya. Baka maka help din satin to have a better sleep yung maternity pillow. Although wala pa ako nun pero plan ko bumili if malaki na tummy ko. :)
