Has anybody else been bothered by this? I've noticed pain in my fingers that is really bad at night times over the last week. Midwife assures me it should just go away after I have baby but it's still very annoying in the meantime.
 
I've got this.

It started with really bad shooting pains stemming from the 'webbing' between my index and second fingers on each hand - at first I thought it was RSI from too much PF or DS Lite!!!

Now those areas are totally numb and when I scratch my wrist I can feel it. It feels yuck and I can't wait to go back to normal.

You may find yours goes numb too? :hug:
 
I've got it too, my doc gave me a splint to wear but it doesnt help - it just gets in the way
 
no numbness at all, just aching pain that made me think it was arthritis :shock:

ive been conscious of keeping my hands moving and doing lots of wrist rotations which is supposed to help.

I wondered if my fingers had suddenly seized up with having just left the keyboard behind at work when I started maternity leave (but that didn't explain the home PC and addiction to pregnancy forum!!!)
 
I have it too.

I also have an inflamed tendon in my left wrist which is connected to Carpel tunnel syndrome and has been caused by repetitive movements from swimming.

Nothing I can do till baby arrives as ibuprofen and an anti inflammatory is what I need to releive it and if that doesnt work then I need a steriod injection. Its bloody painful, can put my weight on it cant lift a cuppa and in the morning its dead stiff and takes a while to get going again.
