Babe i have the same issue. My gynae said it’s due to carpal tunnel syndrome. Most likely it will go away after delivery. At the moment i just try to do some hands exercise and wear the hand splints. Slightly better. But next month ill have to go to see physio as recommended by my gynae.

I have numbness in my hand. Gynae told me it can happen due to water retention compressing the nerve
