Erbs Palsy

Over the weekend we noticed my 4 month old son was moving one arm differently to the other.
(He's always had stiffness in his arms and legs and I took him to my GP 3 times because I was concerned but they just said he was a big strong boy)
Anyway , I phoned out of hours on Sunday and they sent us straight to A&E , he had an X-ray which was clear and an MRI done yesterday which from the pictures they got they believe is clear of things like strokes / tumours etc.
They believe he has Erbs Palsy, which would have been from childbirth . Has anyone experienced this with their baby ?? And how was it missed at his birth check ups if it is Erbs palsy etc ??
Thank you x
