MarshMellow · Sep 22nd, 2008, 01:49 AM

I know I'm not etopic so why is my shoulder killing me? Is it coincidence and I've just slept funny or is there something wrong HELP!!!

I would check with ur gp just to be sure! You just never know. Ive heard stories about one being in the tube and one in the womb> I bet its not but just to rest ur mind

It seems to have eased now. At the last scan their said both my tubes were clear. I think it was just preggy worry at every little pain. If it comes back later I willl definitly phone them x
Thanks hun. I never knew I could be such a hypercondriach!

I had this with my last pregnancy and when I mentioned it to the midwife she said it was probably wind! Hope this helps xxx

I sometimes get shoulder pain and my doc said it is attributed to my not so great posture. I do exercises now that help with my posture and I don't get the pain as much. hope this helps.

Was it kinda like behind one of your shoulder blades? Like a HUGE knot? Ive had that for the last 3 days!

I was told years ago that pain in your left shoulder/collar bone was wind due to your organs being pushed up the way where they shouldn't be.

I had aches in my shoulder at the beginning however you can NEVER be too careful. OUt of 10 how would you rate the pain?

I would certainly seek some advice and a check up hun x

Most pains in the shoulder are due to muscle/joint problems in that area. There are some nerves from the diaphragm (flat horizontal bit of muscle separating the chest from the abdomen) that are related to the shoulder tip and so if you have something irritating the diaphragm e.g. liver abscess then that can cause shoulder tip pain. Most of the time, it's going to be muscular but if you're worried, go and get checked out.

Glad to hear you're feeling better... my shoulder's aching too, but that's only because I've been on BnB all day!

Have you started sleeping on your side instead of your stomach? Sometimes, pressure from the mattress will push on nerves and make it hurt.
