I don't think taking a teaspoon of salt when the cramps come on would help, it's more a general increase in diet thing.... but there are other things my mw suggested to me too. I haven't tried them because I've never had bad cramps longer than a couple of days. They are Dolomite Powder, or Magnesium Supplements (from Health & Vitality).]]> Sat, 30 Dec 2006 20:13:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97229&title=craves#97229 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97221&title=craves#97221 Author: mummy_becks

I thought that as well but it still hasn't stopped me jumping out of bed at about 4am  to get rid of a leg cramp. I read somewhere that having a banana smoothie helps leg cramps so i'm having a banana every night now before bed and that seems to have helped with a glass of milk.]]> Sat, 30 Dec 2006 20:02:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97221&title=craves#97221 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97219&title=craves#97219 Author: busymum

Apparently extra salt is good if you are getting (leg) cramps... and since I've had them on and off I'm quite happy to keep the salt intake up for a couple more weeks! Funny thing is, I KNOW I'm adding more salt in our dinners but I can't taste any difference ]]> Sat, 30 Dec 2006 19:59:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97219&title=craves#97219 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97211&title=craves#97211 Author: mummy_becks

Sneaky hubby.... yea I'm like you Stacey and I had it with my first pregnancy too. And I've just had bloods done (for the third time) as well I think I'm just craving anything with a lot of taste in it this week.... tomato sauce, vinegar, mint sauce, salt... tonight I made seasoned mashed potatoes and usually I have things tasting duller than DH but tonight he said he could hardly eat them - and I couldn't taste anything!

Joys of pregnancy... hehe now it's both of us wishing it's over ]]> Sat, 30 Dec 2006 19:34:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97207&title=craves#97207 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5029&PID=97202&title=craves#97202 Author: kebakat
