Pregnancy carpal tunnel?

Sol

My hands have been numb since about week 12. They’re tingly like I laid on them and they fell asleep. Sometimes it’s really bad and painful bit other times it me iust annoying. My doctor says its because of pregnancy carpal tunnel. Has anyone had this and if so, what are some things you suggest to alleviate the discomfort? I’ve tried braces but that hasn’t helped at all. Thanks for any tips!
