Tingly Feeling in my hands ... Posted: 06-10-07 18:09pm
In my hands.
I wake up every morning with a terrible
pain in my shoulder and the rest of my arm
is numb and tingly, but it hurt's, it's
not liek when it falls asleep.
At first I thought maybe I was just
sleeping funny, but even when I sleep on
my left side I still wake up with the same
pain in my right arm.
As I'm typing now my hand is starting to
tingle and ache.
It's getting pretty frustrating..
Could it possibly have something to do
with pregnancy?
Any ideas?

sounds like carpal tunnel. it's very
common in pregnancy and should fix itself
shortly after you give birth (which is so
soon!). it has something to do with
swelling and pinching nerves... or
something...
the only thing my doctor told me to do was
wear wrist braces but i thought that would
be even more annoying so i just lived with
the tingling.

Ohhh Ok thanks !
Yea I can't see myself doing well in a
wrist brace, that'd probably irritate the
hell outta me.
Not much longer at all, I'll just have to
suck it up!

Yeah, carpal tunnel. I've had it in both
hands since the 4th month. I can't even
make a fist with my right hand anymore. 6
weeks left.

Oh Hun that's brutal!
I've been getting the tingle's for quite
some time... but now the pain is starting
to really bother me.
At least it goes away! (hopefully)
Only 6 weeks!? I could've sworn you had
longer...
Time goes by so fast these days!

It could also just be a pinched nerve. I
have one in my neck that acts up and I
wake up all tingly and numb. I also have
Carpal Tunnel too.. so lord knows. Gotta
love all the things that happen when
pregnant. I cannot wait till I give
birth!!!!
