What causes weakness in hands?

Has anyone else lost strength in their hands being pregnant? I can’t seem to open anything anymore!

I was thinking maybe it was a me thing! Glad I’m not alone. I have to have my boyfriend help me with so many jars and such!

Yes! I’ve lost strength in just about everything! I could hire my husband to open jars/bottles for a living at this rate.

If your hands/wrist hurt you could have carpal tunnel. I developed it with my son and it went away after I had him and now pregnant with #2 and it’s came back.

I never had it previously, but have noticed symptoms of carpal tunnel with this pregnancy. It’s annoying and hopefully won’t stick around after I deliver.
