Fingers Numbness/tingling

Jen
Has anyone experienced numbness and tingling sensation to the fingers and just hand pain? I am 4 week PP and for the past week I have had the numbness and tingling non stop and it's depressing. I have seen the dr for this and he said it was carpal tunnel due to the pregnancy, but I thought that happened during pregnancy! Anyways he said to wear a splint or brace at night and it would go away. Well I wear the the splint all day everyday! I just can't take the numbness anymore. Has anyone experienced this and if so well it go away
