Wrist Pain in 3rd Trimester

Corinne • Wife. Xen's Momma. 👶🏿❤️😺. Chicagoland.

On Sunday morning I woke up with wrist pain at the joint below my thumb in my right hand. I figured I slept on it funny and that the pain would fade. WRONG. The pain only got worse. It is now Wednesday morning and I have it wrapped in an ace bandage. My sis in law who had a 2yo suggested I research wrist tendonitis as she had it when she was pregnant.

Well I did and I'm 99% sure this is what I'm going through. I see my doctor Friday so I'll ask her but in the meantime, this shit's no joke!

It hurts to turn door knobs, to pull up my pants, to carry some things, or open some things. Hell, it even hurts to wipe after the bathroom. Anything that involves bending my wrist downward is painful!

To top it off I woke up a few hours ago with a slight pain in my left wrist, same spot. Please, God, no...

Anyone else been dealing with this and if so, what helped???
