Did anyone have carple tunnel when pregnant? To the point of fingers and hands are numb but hurt badly? My baby just turned 1 and I’m still having issues like holding thinga for even a few seconds, my fingers and hands tingle and go numb. Please tell me this goes away

I had it. Around 6 months until baby was about 8 weeks. If you still have it at 1 year it’s likely you just have carpal tunnel.

Yes! So irritating. Mine went away right away my first kid and took about 6 months with my second kids to go away.

I had it while pregnant with my second but went away soon after he was born. Only to come back a few years later

I did but it did go away.

Omg yes, the WORST pain I’ve ever been in, even worse than childbirth. Sleeping was when the nerve pain happened. This continued until about 4 weeks post-partum.

Oh this was the worst I was a walking zombie I couldn’t sleep with it mines went away after I had my daughter buy hand splints from Amazon some say they help x

It was awful. Didn’t get better after having baby. Had a cortisone shot about 2 months post-delivery. Went away for good.
