Anyone else have carpal tunnel last after pregnancy?

I'm on week six and still don't have full feeling in my fingers on my right hand.  No more pain at least.  If your carpal tunnel lingered, did it ever resolve and if so when?  Thanks.

Took mine about 2 months to feel normal again, maybe 3. It's kinda blurry. All was well when I went back to work.

Yes, for a few months. I had to keep my mouse on the left of my keyboard until it got better.

Thanks for chiming in. FYI, I'm only 'liking' your posts cause you all said that it eventually resolved! Good to know that this isn't totally freakish and I should expect another surgery.

Yes, but it eventually went away

I've just recently noticed that my hands feel totally normal again (DS is 5 months). Mine was really painful during pregnancy (I've never had it before so I'm not sure if that's normal). It quit hurting almost immediately after he was born, but the numbness was there for months after.

Mine showed up after birth and it definitely took a few months. I wore the ugly wrist braces to sleep/type for at least a good month, then wore them only at night for probably another month.

Yes, I can't remember exactly how long, but long enough that I was worried that it would never go awAy.

De quervain's syndrome - had it but was able to control it by using a wrist brace at night when sleeping and getting a cortisone injection which had a numbing agent. After the injection, I felt as good as new but still used the brace for a while.

Mine went away the day I delivered.

For the record I didn't have it at all with my second pregnancy. I only gained 10 less pounds and I don't know if there was a difference because boy pregnancy and girl. I was just thankful that I didn't have it the second time around.
