I'm officially tired of my maternity clothes and I don't want to buy anymore. I have few things to select from for work attire and it's frustrating me. There are some really cute summer tops out there now but I have to wear shirts that cover most of my bicep due to the tattoo I have on my left arm. For skirts, I have a tatoo on my right leg so I can't expose that.
I think I'm going to hit a consingment store in Vancouver this weekend and see what they have that's reasonable. I found a few things on sale at Gap.com I just don't want to spend the money. I'll probably want to buy a pair of capris and a couple of summery tops too so I'm not dying of the heat in May or June.
Last night I had the WORST leg cramp of this pregnancy. I tend to stretch my legs in the middle of the night and I did this last night and my right leg cramped. I could feel it coming on so I tried to adjust so it wouldn't become a full blown leg cramp. Well, that didn't work. It was so bad I had to get out of bed and stand on my leg to get rid of it. I was almost crying it hurt so bad, definetely moaning. I thought I read not to point your toes so when I stretched that leg my heel was flexed and I was still getting the cramp. I tried to massage it but nothing worked until I put pressure on it by standing. I kept saying, "they say to flex your heel, my heel is flexed and the cramp won't go away, it's getting worse." It was really painful and my leg still hurts.
I was just reading about cramps last night in my pregnancy book and it sounds like you did the right thing by standing on it.FYI- the book recommends stretching your calves for at least 10 seconds each night before you go to bed. Hopefully that helps!
