Carpal Tunnel - When does it go away?

I've had tingling in my hands and fingertips for the last month.  Since giving birth a week ago, the tingling is now just in my fingertips but still there constantly!  Before delivering my doctor said it was carpal tunnel and that it should go away once my baby was born but it hasn't.  Did anyone else had carpal tunnel and when did yours go away?

  • My doc said two to four weeks after delivery. I'm three weeks now and feeling much better but not completely gone yet! 
  • Glad you asked this as this is my worst pregnancy symptom! I hate it. It's both hands for me and baby still is not here yet.
