Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion muscle cramps are quite common in pregnancy.Calcium insufficiency might cause such symptoms in pregnancy.So take adequate dietary calcium through milk and milk products and also calcium supplements.Take rest and avoid physical strain.Do pregnancy exercises.
