Hands with pins and needles

Over the last week I keep waking up with pins and needles in my hands. It is in both of my hands, but worse in my left one..especially when I lay on my left side. It's so annoying b/c I have to lay on my side. Then my and go numb, then I have to flip for a few minutes. Then my hand goes numb..and so on. I guess it's one of the joys of the last few weeks of pregnancy.

Your lucky you just got that now. When I was pregnant w/Hayley I had that from around 15 weeks til 3 weeks after she was born...24/7!!

Re: Hands with pins and needles

I've had that on and off since the middle of the first trimester.

Re: Hands with pins and needles

I've had it from the first trimester into the second. It finally went away , but I hated waking up at night to that feeling.

I am almost 22 weeks now and I have been waking up with pins and needles in my hands, it's very uncomfortable!

Re: Hands with pins and needles

I've been waking up to find my left arm completely asleep--but I think it's because I'm still sleeping on my back.
