bad arm and hand numbness

18 weeks now and this started a week or two ago. I wake up alllll night with my arms and hands falling asleep and then during the day if I move a certain way my hands tingle and ache!!! I have heard of this at 9 months but not so early. Anyone? Ways to help it lessen?? Cvant sleep and its sooooo uncomfy. Gah

Are you swelling already?
Try wearing wrist braces to bed. I'm dealing with this now... very badly... at 9 months.

Yes! This happens to me often. Carpal tunnel is common during pregnancy. I always wake up with my arms and hands asleep.

Happened to me sometime in the third trimester. Its carpal tunnel and its a PIA. Apparently wrist guards are supposd to help although they dont seem to help me much!

Re: bad arm and hand numbness

i had carpal tunnle pre pregnancy and it got pretty severe while pregnant.

get the braces at your pharmacy (around $20) and wear those to bed. it doesnt cure it but it will help alleviate some of the discomfort

Not sure how long this has been happening to me, but it has been for a very long time. Every night, every time I wake up - NUMB hands!
