finger swelling during pregnancy

The thumb, middle, index and half of the ring finger become numb, have tingling sensation or pain during pregnancy because the carpal tunnel at the wrist, through which nerves run, swells during pregnancy. The pressure causes these symptoms which could also spread to the hand, wrist and arm. The symptoms will go away after delivery. Meanwhile you could keep the arms raised on pillow at night.

Pre pregnancy, my ring finger was a size 5.5. So when my fiancé got me an engagement ring, it was a 5.5. Now he is looking to get me a wedding band but I have no clue what size he'd order it in because my ring finger size is now a 7!! I'm due in about 7 weeks, what should I do?!

I had a lot of swelling at the end of both of my pregnancies and I had bit feet. Try to put them up which helps with swelling. While it is normal for most women, it also can be a sign of blood pressure issues. Your doctor will check this . My doctor monitored swelling. She'd put her finger into it and it pitted (imprint of her finger stayed for a bit), that was more concerning.

Swelling is normal during pregnancy but when is it considered too much ? Before pregnancy ive always been a little swollen in the ankles and feet , cant tell if it got worse .

Two years later it began to turn bright red and hurt really bad. They found that I had started to grow a second finger (or bone) underneath my my finger. The best description of it would be a bone spur. I went thru ANOTHER surgery to get the bone removed before it could really hurt me. The bone came out and measured 2 and a half inches long.

)! Did you gain a lot of weight during your pregnancy? I'm hoping i loose the weight quick. We're going to jamaica in November! And im having her next month.

I carnt get it off now my fingers are that swollen I'm not allowed to rise my legs due to baby been back to back and needing to get her turned around :/ I used creams and baths but nothing helping :(

Yes, my fingers have been swollen this pregnancy #3. I never swelled w my last two pregnancies, ever. I haven't been able to wear my wedding ring most of this pregnancy. But my feet/ankles are normal.

My feet and ankles are so swollen it's unbelievable. I've been drinking water and laying with my feet up, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Is there anything else I can do to help with the swelling? Are those long compression socks ok to try? My husband has some I've been thinking about putting on, but I want to know it's safe first.

For example its similar to swollen ankles of a women during pregnancy. When you put your finger on them then it stays imprinted. But not no where as bad as ankles would be but similar to. What kind of fluid would be retanded in the left temporial lobe and above the eye? All can I think of is it may be blood? What do you think?

Well, before you take the plunge to exercise during pregnancy, it is always better to receive a green signal from your obstetrician. If you have been exercising regularly, this should not be a problem, however if you have not been exercising, it is suggested to begin slowly. Various modes of physical exercises can be tried that have little impact around the abdomen and are not too draining like walking, slow jogging, low impact aerobics, pre-natal yoga, swimming etc.

now I have to wear size 8! My dr said swelling will go down a couple weeks after I have her.

It depends on where the pain and numbness is. There is a cause of numbness of the index finger and middle finger called carpal tunnel syndrome. It usually also has sensory changes of the palm at the thumb, index and middle fingers, and the ring finger on the side near the middle finger. I am not sure if you have these other features or not, but I will elaborate on this. Carpal tunnel syndrome is a compression/entrapment syndrome of the median nerve at the wrist.

Who has suffered with hemorrhoids during pregnancy, how many weeks were you & how did you get rid of them ?

I also seem to be having some general light swelling in my hands, and I have been noticing that my fingers are sore when I bend them too - I had no idea that this was a symptom of pregnancy so I am glad to hear that you are expereincing something similar. It must be from swelling around the joints. Let us know what your doctor says and congrats on finishing at the bar!

I have some rash that look like eczema on my fingers. Went to go see a minute clinic and she say I have warts. Have anyone got into this during pregnancy? My husband don't even have warts. So I don't know how I got it. I'm going in to see my ob doctor and see what she say.

Yeah id def say get it cold and slippery! I knew that I would have the same problem at some point so I took my ring off almost as soon as I found out I was pregnant! My grandma had to have her ring cut off during a pregnancy so I wasn't taking any chances! Yay swelling!

sometime during pregnancy, the baby puts alot of stress on our organs such as liver and kidneys, because we are also getting rid of the babies waste as well. If you don't drink enough your kidneys/liver can't expel the waste. Also I was under the impression you were itchy all over.

I know that some swelling during pregnancy is normal but when should you become concerned? I've noticed that the last couple days ......not constant,my hands have been a little bit swollen because my wedding ring has been harder to get off, it kind of just comes and goes I'll be 27 weeks tomorrow.

Hello ladies!! I am almost 24 weeks & about a month ago, I developed severe pregnancy carpel tunnel! It's sooooo bad :( I use wraps & braces to "help" but it only does so much... now these last 2 weeks it's gotten worse! I can't feel my hands anymore... they are nonstop swollen & numb & so painfully sore!! I've cut back on my sodium.. that's not the problem. No protein in urine..excellent!

I know one has to be very careful with medication during pregnancy but can anyone suggest any syrup/medicine that is okay to use and very effective? Formula of that medicine will work best for me. Thanks and waiting for your responses.

Would pregnancy occur? I do remember having a bit of pre-*** in my finger and did rub her vagina like immediately after for a little bit. I did put my finger in her vagina (only the tip of my finger), but not the whole thing in. Would that somehow cause her to be pregnant? One more thing, I don't quite remember having my penis touching her vagina, but what would happen if it did? I'm unsure if there was any precum on it? Would that cause pregnancy? I didn't use any condom.

I took a ovulation test during the lumps occurrence which turned out positive. I got pregnant that month. The lump did not persist during the pregnancy or during breastfeeding. I did however have a complicated pregnancy due to a "sensitive uterus" I contracted from 28 to 38 weeks. The birth was induced but relatively normal with no complications. After breast feeding my cycle continued and the lump came back mid cycle.
