Magnesium

I’ve seen this too, so would love if anyone’s got an info, particularly in relation to sickness. My friend swore by adding it to her bath for restless legs in her third trimester x

I asked my midwife about this and she said you shouldn’t need to take anything else except for your daily pregnancy vitamins which contains a small amount of magnesium and your diet should contain the rest. They said we would advise you to take additional supplements if needed like magnesium or iron. Saying this, I do know others taking it and read the benefits online as well but I’d be worried putting too much of something in my body. For example if you take iron supplements and end up having too much iron it could lead to really bad constipation. It’s hard cos everyone does something different xx

I’ve been using a magnesium spray on my legs at bedtime and it does help keep the leg cramps at bay.
