Carpal Tunnel: The wrist pain you are describing might be carpal tunnel. It can be associated with pregnancy, early post partum. It is also seen as a repetitive stress injury w frequent computer/ tablet use and other work. Hand stretches, wrist splints can help. See your primary care doc and/ or orthopedic surgeon for definitive diagnosis and treatment.
