For about a week now I have been waking-up with really sore wrist, mostly hurting when I move my thumbs. As first I just thought I had slept weird, but now that it has been re-occurring for a week I figured it was something else. I checked online and according to mayoclinc.com .....
Pregnancy
Some women develop carpal tunnel in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, in part because of hormonal changes. Shifts in the balance of estrogen and progesterone cause the body to retain more fluid, which increases swelling in the carpal tunnel.
