Morning Finger joints pain in pregnancy.
Hello
I m 22 weeks pregnant. I had been noticing, strong pain when i wake up (morning or evening) sometimes in my wrist, sometimes in thumb joint, sometimes in finger joints and sometimes all the above 3 joints together. It happens in both hands, but more in right hand. This pain subsides in 5-10 mins after i wake up. When i press at those points there is no pain, it pains only when i move my joints.
What kinda pain is this?? Pls explain. Is it serious?? My mom have arthritis since 10years. Am i getting arthritis too?? Or it is just pregnancy related??

Could be due to physiological changes in pregnancy. Start with daily walks and exercises.
