Point your toes toward your knee. It will force your muscle away from the spasm and stretch it out straight and stop the spasm. I did this twice and I haven’t gotten a Charlie Horse since month 5 or so. And I used to get them all the time even when I wasn’t pregnant!

You made it through, didnt have to fast, and I think you’ll pass (knocking on wood). Also, seriously with the prune juice. A little bit changes your life.
