When I was pregnant I woke up nearly every night with that same cramp. It's the most horrific cramp I've ever had; mostly because I could not move my leg at all. Helplessness just adds to the pain.

Make sure she keeps super hydrated; one of the biggest causes of muscle spasms and cramps is exertion and dehydration. Sleep is the time when the body hydrates itself. A tall glass of water might help.

I didn't know your wife was pregnant.

I used to get those leg cramps and they were teh suck.

Kramer didn't help me. He just panicked because he thought I was in labor.
