I just started experiencing hand pains at night while I’m sleeping. It goes away throughout the day but just thought it was a weird symptom. I’m assuming it’s just fluid retention but I’m curious if any other ladies are experiencing this too.

I've had this my entire pregnancy, and my hands go numb. I think it's carpal tunnel, but I'm not sure. I'm going to talk to my doctor about it, because it's getting really bad.

yes! I had some hand pains at the beginning of pregnancy but this is like a whole other level that just started when I got into my third trimester. I hope it’s nothing serious.

@Christy you should be okay! But I would talk to your doctor just in case. I'm swelling, too, but not like extremely bad, where it could be a sign of pre-eclampsia. 🤷♀️ do your hips/lower back hurt, too? Mine have been SO bad 😫

my lower back definitely hurts. Stretching definitely helps but still, it makes doing stuff around the house really difficult. My hips haven’t started hurting yet, but I’m sure that’s something else I can look forward to lol.

@Christy awh well I hope you feel better! Sorry, I'm not much help, just more so I can relate haha 😅

My hands always fall asleep while I'm sleeping. I think it's the way my body is positioned now as I used to be a stomach sleeper and now I'm sleeping mostly on my sides. And my feet fall asleep if I sit criss cross.

My hands go numb just doing my makeup or cooking. Even holding my phone, they go numb 😳
