Hi Magnesium often helps. You can take it safely, New Era Tissue Salt Mag Phos No.8. You can buy them from health food stores, some chemists even. Hope it helps.

I'd try taking a multi-supplement to get magnesium, calcium and vitamins as RLS can be a symptom of a number of deficiencies. You should be taking a pregnancy supplement including vitamin D throughout pregnancy anyway so its easy to just use a multi-supplement.

Make sure you're not getting dehydrated too. And if you're getting leg cramps, massage might help.
