Hallow; welcome to HCM.

Most of the time, tingling of feet during pregnancy is due to anaemia. It can be due to B vitamin deficiency, calcium deficiency also.

What are your haemoglobin levels?

You may start iron, multivitamin and calcium preparations if you already have not.

Please report to your Obstetrician to look for any other cause.
