I'm approximately 4 weeks pregnant and for the past 4 or 5 days I've had numbness in my palms, feet, and calves/shins. I feel some feeling in my hand when I grasp something like a soda can or handle on staircase. But if I take my palms and rub them down my thighs, I cannot feel any of it. Or if I try to move the blankets with my feel when trying to go to sleep -- I don't feel that either. Sometimes I've noticed it when I have the steering wheel in my truck and I try to turn it. Sometimes I feel it and sometimes I don't. If I have my phone under the blanket and I go to reach my phone, I can't feel it. I have to lift the blanket up and physically look for it.
Is this normal? What the heck is going on? I'm supposed to hear back from my doctor on Monday morning about making an appointment. What do you think about this?
Another question -- should I contact my family doctor or my OBGYN?
