Numbness or Tingling In Hands Wrists Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

 

Numbness or tingling in hands
Either you’ve been building snowmen without any gloves on, or it could be that these symptoms may be linked to carpal tunnel syndrome, where swelling during pregnancy (both inside or out) puts pressure on the nerves in your arms or wrists, with the pain and weakness radiating up your arm or into your fingers.

Suggestions from the Maternity Network

  • Wrist splints can help. Wear one anyway, as it also gets you out of the domestic chores!
  • Sleep with your arm elevated on your pillow. You may feel a bit silly, but who’s watching?
  • Hang them off the bed so they are lower than you (your hands, not your partner!).
