Guest guest Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks for your suggestions. I am going to ask my doc about the de Quervain's tendonitis, since I read it is common in new mothers. My thumbs and shoulders got bad after I started carrying my daughter around! Now I find I can barely hold her. Thanks everyone! beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 , thats what I got after Charlie was born. The steroid shots cleared it right up. Watch how you are positioning your hands during feedings, I think that makes it worse sometimes. Oh, and it took me 2 years to get the shot, my first ortho wanted to cast my hands. What a great idea! That makes taking care of a baby easy!! Sent from my iPhone On Jan 11, 2009, at 8:10 PM, beth Costa <elizcosta@...> wrote: Thanks for your suggestions.
