Is leg numbness at night during pregnancy due to calcium deficiency?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
Normal, as a pregnant woman's weight increases, the load on her legs, which support her body, becomes heavier, causing fatigue. Additionally, the protruding abdomen compresses the veins in the thighs, leading to symptoms such as cramps or numbness in the legs. Muscle spasms may occur in the legs when turning over or extending them. This can sometimes also be a sign of calcium deficiency. Pregnant women should supplement with calcium appropriately based on their specific situation and also pay attention not to let their legs get cold. When cramps occur, don't get nervous. Massage the legs evenly with gentle pressure, or pull the big toe towards the body. This usually works quickly.
