Please tell me it's normal

Every night I constantly wake up every 20 to 30 minutes cause my arms are numb and it's aching that lasted for about a week now it's just my hands and it's very painful...has anyone ever had this experience before ? Could it just be my arthritis?

Try hugging a pillow and see if it helps

I sometimes get that even before pregnancy. Mostly thumbs. I find that keeping my arms below my heart helps.

For the last month i have had my arms and hands go numb and pains in my leg. It just the baby laying on nerves. Idk how far along u are im 35 weeks and my doctor says it normal in the 3rd trimester

It sounds like carpal tunnel to me. I have it and had it even before pregnancy. They make wrist braces that seem to help (mine were $15 each at Walmart). Also I've helps to relieve some of the pain. Try not to bend your wrists when you sleep... When mine really flares up I get it all the way to my elbows
