I’m not sure that has anything to do with being pregnant, maybe sleeping position and you notice it because you get up in the night.

Carpal tunnel is common in pregnancy but usually comes on later. It could be that.

@AmySH1267 I am now 32 weeks and had this from about 8 weeks. It started at night when laying in bed and typing/scrolling on my mobile. And now I just wake up at night with numb fingers even when I haven't been resting on my arms or hands. Midwife said it sounds like carpal tunnel.

I had to have injections for carpal tunnel after DD, it eased but didn’t go completely. May have to have the op.
