| description | Mommy's thumb is a lay term for de Quervain's tenosynovitis in mothers of newborn to young children.

We present a case report of a first-time mother presenting with bilateral de Quirvain's tenosynovitis which may be attributed to a previously undiagnosed cardiomyopathy leading to fluid retention. |
