Hi all!

I am 36 weeks and in the last week or so I have been waking up with very sore knuckles. I cannot for the life of me clench my fists. My knuckles feel bruised and like they're filled with cement! I see no swelling on my hands just feel the pain! After an hour or so movement comes back, but they still ache .

I have never experienced this before, so I'm taking this as a symptom!? Just curious to know if anyone has had this and if it goes after birth. It's horrible.

Thanks :)

I wake up with stiff fingers, prob not as bad as yours but ye I think it's to do with pregnancy.

@Delbelleber hey thanks for responding ☺️
It must be then I do hope it goes after birth. Awkward when I'm desperate for the loo in the morning and I try push myself up from bed with what appears to look like a Lego hand 😂

Very sore!

Could it be vitamin d related?
Sore and stuff joints can be a symptom of having low vit d
Hope it feels better soon

@Pygmyseahorse oh really. Thanks for sharing.. maybe best I do give the dr a quick call then. Just incase!
I'd ask my midwife but she tends to just say "call your gp".

Thanks ☺️
