Mommas who have had pregnancy-induced carpal tunnel: why did no one tell me it was this miserable!!!? I wear wrist braces/splints on both hands all day and night, Only taking them off to use bathroom. I still wake up in excruciating pain all night, unable to get comfortable, shooting pains up my arm to my elbow, etc. I do strengthening exercises to keep them "awake" during the day, but it's so bad at night that when I wake up in the am, I can't bend my hands. I've tried Tylenol, Ice, preggo approved essential oils. Nothing helps. Any tips I'm missing?

@lucylu2, I'm so sorry you're having this problem, too! I don't wish this on my worst enemy! Ice packs help but just numbs it mostly, I believe

Please let me know if you find any relief. I've tried it all as well and nothing seems to help 😒
