Hey everyone!
So I'm 35 weeks and in the last few weeks I've been getting pain in my upper arms and shoulders. It feels like trapped gas, but I also feel really dizzy with it and sick too. Does this sound like a normal 3rd trimester thing? Or do I need to speak to a GP?

Yeah, speak to midwife / GP

Could be iron deficiency - have you had a test recently?

Or hot weather can cause swelling?

Carpal tunnel can affect arms too I believe?

But yes I’d ask for proper advice in case it’s something that needs attention
