Hi
exactly that! Im very nearly 30wks pregnant and have dull ache in my left calf thats been lurking all day. Keep thinking about clots

If it was clot would be be very painful or just an ache? should I speak to MW?

thanks

Have you been getting cramps at night? (very common later in pregnancy)
If you do I quite often find that my calf continues to ache aftewards for quite a while.
No idea what a clot would feel like but if you're worried call your midwife - that's what they're there for!

Same as others have said. I get cramp at night sometimes, then muscles ache the next day. Get hydrated and eat a banana (or drink some VitaCoco) for electrolytes/potassium Smile

I had this. Midwives sent me for a scan. All was fine :) but one never knows!
