Q: Pregnant And My Hand Keeps "falling Asleep"

I am in the begining of my ninth month and for the past week my right hand keeps "falling asleep". Both during the day and at night I get that tingling sensation in the hand and shake it to try to make it go away. This is my 2nd pregnancy and I didn't have this the 1st one. Anyone ever experience this, or have an idea what may be causing it?
