Has anyone experienced waking up in the mornings and just above my thumb is so sore every morning. The pain goes away after about an hour but comes back again every time I wake up from a sleep?

It might be pregnancy induced carpal tunnel. I had this in the third trimester, it’s a nuisance but it generally clears up once you’ve given birth. If it is carpal tunnel it’s caused by fluid pooling in your hands, try to keep them raised above the level of your heart as much as possible. If it gets really bad you can get splints to wear.
