Yes,,, sounds like the baby is pushing on a nerve or something. How far along are you? With my last one I could hardly walk, she was pushing on my syadic (sp?) nerve... it was hell. Oh the joys of pregnancy, lol

Mine do it all the time even not pregnant. Mine does it because I sleep on my side and it cuts regular blood flow to my arm.

It's pregnancy carpal tunnel.  I have it really bad now, but mostly only in my left hand.  I'm right handed so I guess it isn't that bad.  My ob said it's due to the increase water and pressure on the nerve in your wrist.  Like most everything other side effect of pregnancy it's perfectly normal though incredibly irritating and sometimes quite painful.  My ob also said it goes away after delivery.

My arms go numb weather I am pregnant or not and when they start that I go to the chiropractor and he fixes me. There is a nerve about the level of your shoulder-blades in your back and when the vertebrae goes out it pinches that nerve.
