I feel your madness!
Sometimes taking a bath will help, eating a banana is said to help also---none of these things worked for me tho!.
The only thing that helped some was getting up and walking around!.
I had to be put on meds to help control it!. I am not sure if that is a opiton for you since you are pregnant but it is some thing you should check into after the baby is born!.
Edit:By the way, my RLS started while I was pregnant with my 3rd child and it never went away, it just kept getting worse to where it was effecting me during the day and not just at night time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've had RLS since I was a little kid!. I've noticed that the more active I am during the day, the less likely it is to kick in at night!. Caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol all aggravate the heck out of it, but I'm gonna go ahead and assume you're already avoiding those things because you're pregnant!. The best cure I've found, aside from running on my elliptical for an hour, is calf massages!. If you have someone around to give you one, then that's ideal!. If not, even giving one to yourself should help out a little!. The discomfort from my RLS tends to be the worst in the ball of my foot, so gently rubbing that area for a bit helps out too!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I had the same issues, you are almost there though!. Just try all those home remedies to bring on early labor and get the sucker out of there! It will be better once the baby is out, but you won't sleeping anyway then either!. I think all the sleep issues and peeing is preparation for not getting any sleep for the next 18 years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Poor girl been there!! By restless do you mean pain, cramping!? If yes, then ask your dr about a vit b shot!. It can do wonders!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
