Numb toes during pregnancy?

Asked by tan235 (877

ok this sounds totally weird, but my left toe is numb, it’s been numb now for 4 days. I’m assuming it has something to do with being pregnant.
Does anyone know if this is possible, if somewhere a nerve is being pinched?
I have no idea if I should be worried or not I mean it’s a toe!
Your thoughts?

Yes, you probably have a nerve getting pressed on. Not to worry. It should go normal after you add to the over-population of the planet. :)

Yes, numbness in the hands (carpal tunnel syndrome) and feet are a common thing in pregnancy. Pressure on the nerves from all your swollen tissue. Try elevating your feet while you’re laying down and/or sleeping. (As if sleeping comfortably wasn’t difficult enough already.)
