I am scared that it might be something more serious then just regular shoulder pain. It started last night. I do lay on my right side all the time. Sleep on it as well. Very werid and unusual ways. I need honest real answers please thanks
2nd baby- didn’t have this problem with first child.

i had the same exact thing in my left shoulder at about 8 weeks. I was concerned because i didn’t have a lot of strength in my left hand as a result. I did go to the doctor – he said it was just strained from laying on that side and my body not having adjusted to the extra bosom weight i was now sporting as well as an odd sleeping position due to sore breasts, No prescription, he said take tylenol to take the edge off and to try to be gentle with the arm -but also to stretch it out a lot during the day.
sleep on the other side or sleep on your back…
Don’t take risks. Go straight to your Doctor.
Call doctor. It could be a simple irritation or a pinched nerve but always better to check with doc. They can also tell what you can do to ease the discomfort.
Good luck!
Its typical with the second child that the arm may fall off allowing the nutrients used by that arm to be transferred to the unborn child.
this doesnt sound related….if you’ve already had a child with no problems…
maybe you are sleeping on it too much
go to a doc pet xxx
good luck <3
