I got it very badly last pregnancy due to weight gain and water retention, and a little bit this one. My Chiro is helping relieve a lot of the symptoms and I also try not to sleep with my hands under my head/body. Accupuncture helped me HEAPS last pregnancy as they wanted to operate on both hands when it didn't get better after birth, and I wore braces on my hands at night, sometimes during the day, to stop my hands clenching. (you can have these made for you or get generic ones from the chemist)
If you wait to see the Dr then you will get a referral and it wont cost as much. Otherwise book into see either a Chiro, osteopath, physio, accupuncturist or OT as they would all help. In the meantime, rub your wrists or get someone to rub them, on the inside of your wrist from the middle to the outside. It does help. GL!
