Wondered if anyone else had experience of this. I have read about carpel tunnel syndrome being a complication of pregnancy due to water retention, but my symptoms are continual and replicated in my feet and toes which i cant find anything about. Its very strange to walk and i feel uncomfortable all of the time. Any advice or help please

Hi mrs

I too am experiencing this in my right hand ring finger, feels slightly tingly and weak. More noticeable when I stretch out my hand. It's suddenly come on the last few days. I read that it can happen in second and third tri but I'm only 6 weeks!

Very odd.

I had this, but with me it was due to low BP.

My sister had this but not while pregnant and it turned out she had a vit b12 deficientcy - best to get it checked out to be on the safe side.

I'm 25+4 and have had this on and off throughout pregnancy - on the occasional day when I wake up and never lasting long. My mw put it down to carpel tunnel.
