Progesterone causes ligaments to losten up and also the bones do soften a lil during pregnancy..but just let ur Dr know

Also talk to ur Dr abt Potassium and Sodium content in ur body

June 23, 2008

I was thinking the same thing about the potassium and sodium because i know that leg pain can be a sign of electrolyte embalance..so i think that i may need to drink more water..or drink a little gatorade..what do you all think..

I know shelly was telling me something in another post about her haivng leg pain too..i wonder what she did..

Many times primarily due to dehydration especially in the summer months...gatorade types of products are great for this...

Yeah i can tell that i am a little dehydrated because my lips are a little dry and i have been needing to use extra lip gloss lately..so i will def increase my water intake and then try to stary doing a little gatorade..thanks everyone..
