My first post!
I am 17 + 2 and having a terrible time sleeping at night due a dull ache in my thigh. Paracetamol doesn’t touch the pain and when I’m in bed I just can’t get comfy 😭 any suggestions / ideals. I can’t function without sleep...

Hello and welcome

I’m not sure on that one sorry, have you tried the PG board?

There is a complaint called 'restless legs syndrome' maybe your GP doctor can help you?

Have you mentioned to your MW? They probably have a lot of experience of ways to help avoiding paracetamol, as you're pregnant.

Did you find anything over on the pg boards?

Hey there, I've suffered with restless legs for years and turns out my iron was low and was put on ferrous sulphate. When I conceived our DD 2 years ago it became worse and then started with restless hands and wrists which I'd never had before and my tablets were upped. Mention it to your midwife. I hope you get sorted
