Wrist hurts once wake up every morning

Hi there, my wrist has been hurting from the start of my 17-18th week. It gets better if I lie with my wrist straight. Is there any reason or cute for this?

I had tt during my 1st pregnancy and doc said likely carpal tunnel syndrome. I hD to wear wrist braces. My job requires to write alot and pregnancy cld make u retain more fluid and ligaments softer. It only goes away after 6 months post partum cz tt's also when breastfeeding reduced so didnt need to hold baby as much. I seem to be getting it again now. Currently in my 2nd pregnancy at 20 wks.
