Will my pregnancy leg pain get better after delivery?
Most often, the pain is due to sciatica that results from the uterus growing and pushing on the sciatic nerve. If this is the case, then exercises and PT may alleviate the pain following delivery. Leg cramps may also be the source of the pain, this is usually addressed by potassium intake. There is one major cause that is dangerous, Thrombophlebitis, or deep vein thrombosis. You should tell your OB/GYN about the leg pain so that the doctor can make sure that it is not deep vein thrombosis or Thrombophlebitis; these can be life-threatening and require immediate treatment.
