Carpal tunnel anyone???

I believe I have it and have it bad. The numbness and tingling in my arms hands and fingers is crazy. Happens at night, when I dry my hair and even just sitting up. What can I do other than give birth,????

I had it bad when I was pregnant too. I found wrist braces at Walgreens that really helped. I only wore them at night but it made a difference.

I had it while pregnant. And 8 days PP I am still experiencing it, but not nearly as bad. Personally, I found the braces to be completely useless.
Talk to your doctor, limit salt intake, use pillows to prop your arms/hands into comfortable positions while sleeping.
Just remember, it will all be worth it once you see their little faces!

Wear the braces while you sleep and google carpal tunnel hand stretches
There are a few that help a little
Hopefully it goes away when baby is born

I have it and will be trying braces this week. Some nights it is painful and my fingers are frozen in curled positions. Even during the day my hands are in a little pain when I make a fist or bend my fingers. Hoping the braces work!

Had it with my first pregnancy- it went away after DD was born but the only thing that helped was a wrist cbrace.. though it didn't help all that much either!
