Numb hands

So my hands are feeling a little numb this week. I'm 33 weeks pregnant.  I can still wear my rings but they are a little snug. Is it just the swelling making my hands numb? It's a really weird feeling. I was trying to write my thank you notes tonight and my hands kept cramping up.

Pregnancy carpal tunnel is very common. Annoying but goes away after delivery

My blood pressure is really good. I think it might be pregnancy induced carpel tunnel. Glad to hear it resolves after delivery.

I had this with my first two pregnancies, it was actually pregnancy induced carpal tunnel, it went away shortly after delivery.  Good luck.

It most likely is due to the swelling which is normal for how far along you are. If the swelling gets really bad it could be preeclampsia and you should notify your dr.
