Aching legs!

[luvlymum]

Last night when I went to bed my legs were aching really bad, I woke up in the night and they were still aching and on waking this morning they still ache. Does anyone know what could cause this I haven't done anything like strenuous exercise.

i had really bad achy legs two days ago, has now progressed to headaches, sore throat and it looks like im getting flu (proper flu, not man flu). hope thats not the case for you but is possibility

Have you been kneeling down, sitting on your knees?...

No rummum, I haven't been kneeling down, its my whole legs that ache too especially the shins and calves, I really hope I'm not starting with flu as I've got a 7 month old baby to look after and we're going to a wedding on Saturday!!

Hi luvlymum,

Aching legs at night especially calves can be sign of lack of calcium, vit b12 or iron deficiency. I had it last month, put it down to body re adjusting to not breastfeeding anymore? trying to eat lots of greens! it is helping i must admit. But a little worried i might have got a few varicose veins coming too!
