Nerve compression: During pregnancy, the female body retains fluids. This can cause problems in areas where nerves travel through small passageways. Swelling in the arms and legs can cause the nerves to become inflamed and painful. Some things to try at home: elevate the limb, gently massaging the affected limb from hand towards shoulder, Flexion and extension stretches, cold compresses, and acetaminophen.
