Re: tingling in left hand and forearm?
In my first pregnancy, I couldn't feel anything from elbow to fingertip for the entire third trimester and for about a month postpartum. This time, I just have occasional tingling so far (30 wks).
It's normal. It's swelling that is pinching nerves/the way the baby is sitting/just another annoying reality of pregnancy you don't know about till you have it!

I wake up almost every morning and my left hand is usually tingly and I have no feeling in it. Within 10 min it goes back to normal but I'm pretty sure it's normal!

It's very common to get carpal tunnel in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy. I had it with my first pregnancy and it went away about 6 weeks after she was born.

Same here except it was accompanied by an arthritic type pain and it went away immediately after delivering.

Probably carpal tunnel. I had it terribly at the end of my pregnancy. Went away as soon as DD was born.

Yup my left thumb is pretty much numb at this point! This just started about 6 days ago as tingling and it's gotten progressively worse. Carpal tunnel is very common I hear during pregnancy because of all the swelling.

I had this throughout my pregnancy. The only thing that helped me was seeing my chiropractor!

I just started getting this last week (I'm 28 weeks this week)! Was wondering if this was normal... my three fingers on right hand (thumb, pointer and middle) go completely numb, especially when I'm sleeping but also when doing other things - anytime I need to bend the wrist. Hoping it goes away soon!

Try drinking lots of fluids. You are probably are but I know I had to really drink a lot especially towards the end. Drink Gatorade or something similar.

Try wearing a wrist brace to bed - it may ease the numbness.
