Pains in fingers

I’m 36 weeks pregnant, has anybody ever encountered pains in their fingers?! Like the base of my fingers where they join my palms feel bruised to touch, and bending/gripping anything even down to holding my steering wheel when driving is painful! 🥴

My joints in the fingers feel like this, they ache from the swollen, water retention 😬😂

Looking at mine they don’t actually look swollen though. It woke me up in the night when I gripped my quilt to pull it up 😂

Yes I’m having the same at 32 weeks, but they look totally normal 😅 I read that it could be Carpool Tunnel syndrome? Regardless, ice packs definitely help!

I would probably say carpal tunnel. It’s just another delightful pregnancy symptom. It’s to do with swelling, not always noticeable from the outside. They can refer you if you need help/ if it’s getting too bad. I’ve got it terribly. It’s a bit debilitating right now. Looking forward to it going once baby is here in a few weeks!
Hope yours gets better soon!
