I've heard that as well. Try ice and
heat to make it feel a little bit more
bearable. Good luck with your pregnancy.

Carpal tunnel syndrone. I have it really
bad and the symptoms have gotten really
much better since I am diagnosed disabled
and dont work anymore. As soon as I got
pregnant this time the symptoms came right
back--but this time from the pregnancy.
My girl friend got it bad just from bein
pregnant. Splints--you can buy at drug
store. Wear them snug--not too tight at
night and it will help most of the pain.
If still bad pack in ice till you cant
stand the cold no more. Try not to do
things that are repetative, or anything
that uses the strength of your hands.
When it hurts---stop

I wore braces for the longest time and
finaly gave in last october and had the
surgery done.... I have had no problems
at all.... Yay!
The only way I would suggest anyone to go
thru the surgery is if the muscles are
starting to atrophy... (like mine did)
fortunatly if you develop it during
pregnancy, like food cravings it goes away
after the birth
