Carpal tunnel

[Hazel]

Anyone got it??

I can't open my bedroom door in the morning where my hands are so numb which is not good when you're dying for a wee.

Midwife said it was common in pregnancy.

I had it really bad with jack but so far so good this time round.

I struggled to feed jack cause I couldn't hold him at first.

Its not pleasant is it.

Yeah, I've got it too. Gp said she'll sign me off work if it gets too bad, am finding it wakes me up at night too (so that combined with frequent trips to the loo means not much sleep for me!!), I get it in both hands and try shaking my hands to get them back to normal. GP did say it should go once baby arrives though - hope she's right!

I have had it with my last one and he is 5 months old and its just gone, i do get twinges now and again but nothing no where near how bad it was! god it is so painful, i realy feel for you.
Paradysso sent me a link to his guy who does a carpal massage and i followed the stretches and i cant believe after everything i tried these stretches really made a massive difference, i will pm you the link if you want.x

That would be great if you could send me the link. It's not terrible at the moment, I've mainly got the numbness in the morning. My mum had it when she had me and that was 27 years ago and it never went

I've posted a topic about it but didn't know what it was called. I started to have it in my left hand and im worried it might get worse at the end. it seems i've experienced every pregnancy symptom with this one
