And there go my fingers

MangoMama82 · September 2013

Woke up around 4 AM to pee, and found out that bending my fingers is my latest challenge. Sure they're swollen (and now officially ring-free), but now they HURT! I iced them, but they're still achy. Apparently pregnancy carpal tunnel is a "thing". Making breakfast for the hubby this morning turned into "here's some cereal in a bowl, enjoy". Do I suffer alone?

No, mine are like that all the time. It's worse in the morning. It is making my knitting really hard, sad panda.

Not in my fingers, but at night no matter what position I lay in my hands go numb and wake me up with pins and needles...between that and waking up every half hour to pee, I haven't slept in a week. I feel your pain!

Mine are so swollen and are numb all throughout the night when I sleep, it SUCKS.

Not alone... I haven't been able to wear my rings in months... And my wrists are KILLER. No hair ties allowed!

My fingers just started swelling over this past weekend. I took my engagement ring off ( but can still wear my wedding ring, for now. The do hurt though towards the end of the day, when I find I've been walking around (arms dangling at my side). It sucks.

My feet/ankles, however, are good so far, so I'm not complaining!

Mine swell over night and go away mid day but then it starts allllllll over!

I have had this problem since the first Tri

My middle fingers literally get Stuck down and I have to pull them up and it HURTS. I feel for you. I have been wearing carpel tunnel wrist bands since 20 weeks cause it is so bad I even sleep with them... At least you don't have long to go.

Sausage fingers over here! Attractive!

Mine are so bad too! It's like I have really bad arthritis, so no rings for a while here. Oh and typing on a computer - which I do ALL DAY LONG - not fun

Mine started in the past few days! It's really not fun! My handwriting looks like that of a 4 year old! I can't grip anything small. You're not alone!

My fingers, toes, and knee joints are so sore. My ankles and wrists have been ok though so I am thankful for the small wins.

MangoMama82 · September 2013

Oh no, I haven't tried writing anything yet. Scared! I do have to haul up 2 bags of donated clothes and shoes from the basement right now. Too bad hubby is at work. This might get interesting!

My fingers started hurting this week and when I woke up this morning, I could barely bend them because it hurt so bad.

ohkay · September 2013

My fingers cramp up every time I straighten my hair. So annoying and painful!

mommybear0922 · September 2013

My fingers are the same way! I read that joint pain is another lovely symptom of pregnancy, that basically makes you feel like you have arthritis:-(

Ycu2013 · September 2013

My fingers hurt too...in the mornings I can't even bend them.

Amjoy25 · September 2013

Swollen and numb, both hands...it's fan-tab-ulous.

cdbayes · September 2013

Swollen hands, feet, and ankles-in diar need if a pedi too, which makes me a very unattractive sight to see

I usually hate typing on my tablet, but it is easier on my hands these days.

WSatisfiedP · September 2013

Mine hurt so incredibly bad. They wake me up at night. Bed rest has kept my ankles from swelling (they were my major swelling issue while I was working).
