Hands falling asleep when asleep?

Question

Hey mamas! 
This last week my hands have been falling asleep when I am asleep/wake up to use the bathroom. I've read to only sleep on your left side but I usually have to switch from left to right about 5 times during the night or my leg starts hurting. 
Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I start putting pillows around me to elevate my hands/arms? Or is it my torso/chest that needs to be elevated? 
Thanks for any suggestions!!!!

Answer

Sounds like carpal tunnel, may need to wear a wrist wrap or brace.

Answer

Yes, I've had that problem for awhile now. I tried sleeping on both sides and sleeping propped up and have used pillows but it kept happening. I think it is carpel tunnel after researching and talking to the doctor. I finally got wrist guards (one for each hand) and it has helped SO much! I can sleep any way and my hands & arms no longer go numb!

Answer

Suffering from the same issue. I've tried pillows and such nothing seems to help

Answer

That was happening to me a lot (even while awake) and found out I was anemic. Maybe worth checking out?

Answer

Yes, same for me and it's also worse on my left side almost right away when I'm on my left side my hand go numb and start to sting.. it's been that way since June for me.. I have to sleep on my right side also. My sleep is so jacked right now!
