Restless and very tired legs since pregnancy and birth

Hi mums! I'm not sure if this has been asked before, sorry if it has. Since the birth of my two children I suffer of very strong restless and tired legs and nothing really helps, only some stretches help for a very short period of time.

This condition wakes me up every single night and in bad days I suffer during the day as well (it's normally worst at night).

I was wondering if anybody has the same or similar problem, if you guys have some advice or solutions and if anybody has heard about something called Compression therapy that might be helpful.

Thanks! Smile

Get a blood test for anaemia. I had awful restless legs, had blood test and admitted for emergency blood transfusions.

This is a classic sign of anaemia
