So sorry you didn't get any replies. My son has blue finger tips and often bluish colour lips and he has low blood pressure. Hows youre blood pressure? At least by being pregnant you are being monitored closely but if I were you I would want to know more from the doctor about the dangers (if any) of 'OK' circulation in order to alleviate any fears you may have.

People sometimes don't reply if they have no experience of what you have had.

I am not sure what to suggest to be honest. The doc must be keeping an eye on you if you are pregnant so I guess you have to trust him with this one.

Not much help I know but I have no experience of this.

Numbness or tingling in hands and feet

What you feel:

You feel pins and needles in your hands and feet, or other parts of your body. Sometimes you get a feeling like a particular area of your body is numb or frozen. Other times you may feel a burning sensation in your arms, legs or face.

What causes this:

Since the nervous system conveys touch sensations to the brain, when the nervous system is over stimulated, it can sometimes send impaired information which will often be felt as a numbness, tingling or pins and needles. For example, when an individual pinches a nerve they usually feel the results of this as numbness or tingling in a certain part of the body.

Because the entire skin area of the body is touch sensitive (nerves cells connected to the brain through the nervous system network), any part of the skin or body can feel numb, tingly or as pins and needles.

Typically this sensation comes and goes, and will affect a wide range of body areas off and on. It’s nothing to be concerned with and will subside once the nervous system gets sufficient rest.
