Leg Cramps

I write alot about the baby and stuff that Steven and I are up to. I don't write about the lil moments that mean alot.

I have been getting really bad leg cramps while I sleep lately. If I stretch it out after getting it I can usually get rid of it without that much pain.

Last night however, was very different. I stretched out my leg and it started hurting so bad. So I tried to stretch it out again and it would not stop hurting. I tried and tried to get rid of the pain but it wouldn't leave. Finally I sat up and started rubbing my leg and cried silently so that Steve could sleep. Next thing I knew he was sitting up with me asking if everything was ok. I told him it was just a leg cramp and it would be ok. I laid back down and he wrapped his arms around me and then helped me rub my leg to get rid of the pain. He was so worried about me. I tried to tell him I would be ok but he would not go back to sleep until he knew that my leg had stopped hurting. It meant so much that he was so worried about such a little thing.

We both knew that it would go away but knowing that he cares so much that even a little leg cramp that gets to me also gets to him is comforting. I don't like to worry him but last night it let me know that he wants me to be comfortable. It made me so happy to know that I have him laying next to me so that no matter what happens he is there to help. Even if I wake up with a leg cramp or even worse pain he is there to make sure I am comfortable.

I love my husband so much and I am so glad that I have him. He is a HUGE blessing in my life.

Charley horses are on of those things I definitely don't miss about pregnancy. I used to be asleep and get one and stretch my leg and get woken up from the pain. No fun. Glad Steven helped!
