Carpal Tunnel & de Quervain's Syndrome

Did anyone else get blessed with these after pregnancy? 

Got diagnosed with de Quarvain's (thumb/wrist tendon issues) in the left hand and Carpal tunnel in the right. Fun fun. I was waiting for it to go away, but kept getting worse to where I'm having trouble picking up the kids. So, I'm starting occupational therapy, and they said I should be fine by the time I go back to work, which is good since I get to write 40 IEPs when i return (yay).

  • Hmm interesting. I haven't been diagnosed, but my wrist and thumb kill after nursing...I can barely move it when I'm done.

    Guess it's common during and after pregnancy. Mine is worst in the morning, but achy all day.
