I thought I knew all the pregnancy symptoms out there, but I guess I was wrong. About a week ago, my left wrist/thumb started hurting in the middle of the night. As the week has progressed, it has gotten worse and now it hurts to use my thumb. I have carpel tunnel symptoms...yuck. Last night I bought a brace to wear to immobilize my wrist and thumb which has helped a little. My best friend (the bath tub) also helps to make it feel better. From what I have researched, the symptoms should go away after the babies are born. 25% of pregnant women get this and it is mainly from swelling that women get in the 3rd trimester. I hope it all goes away completely cause it will be painful to hold babies if it doesn't go away. It hurts to move at all. LOVELY!!! Thankfully it's only my left hand so far. My right hand hurts a little at night, but nothing like the left.
Another pregnancy symptom that is new to me this year is all the dang skin tags that I have gotten. I read that this is due to the pregnancy hormones as well.
