Hi,

I am 9 weeks + 5 days pregnant (estimated).

Today I started getting aching in my right shoulder and right arm also with numbness in my right hand.

My job is very physical and involves a lot of stretching and movement.

I'm not in extreme pain, just feels uncomfortable.

I rang the hospital unit and they said go to A&E if I get jaw pain or chest pain but the unit only deal with 18 weeks +

Anyone had similar symptoms?

Thank you

Ligaments are known to being more elastic during pregnancy and if your job is very heavy on that area, I'd be inclined to assume it's that however it is also a symptom of an ectopic pregnancy so I'd definitely get checked over and try to get a scan to be on the safe side
