Calf pain - 24 weeks

I'm 24 weeks pregnant and I have had calf pain in my left leg all day today. I am on hyper alert for DVT but I have no other symptoms for this- no swelling or redness but persistent pain in my left calf.

I am really reluctant to go in to a hospital to have this checked at the moment, considering what is going on. I'm also unsure if I am being hyper-vigilant and worrying because I know that it will be harder to be seen at the moment.

Given the pain started a few hours ago, should I wait until tomorrow and give the doctor a call? I don't want to put extra stress on the system at the moment, but also worried in case I miss something serious! My midwife doesn't tend to respond when I get in touch with her, so I don't feel I can just send her a quick message!

This isn’t something to wait until tomorrow about. You need to call your doctor now.
