I've always had issues with grip - I put it down to my arthritis rather than pregnancy... it was just embarrassing when I was teaching and I would drop my white board marker and one of my students would have to scramble out of their seat to retrieve it for me. Even worse, when sitting in the staff room I dropped a pen on the floor and had to ask a colleague to come from the other side of the room to pick it up for me. Those final few weeks were fun.
