    Arm aching

    Just sitting here watching TV and bumming around on the net and all of a sudden I have a cramp in my left arm. From my forearm down to my hand which is kinda tingly. Is this normal?? I'm 27wks if that makes any difference.

    Are you using a phone or iPad or laptop? Just thinking about your arm position and how your muscles and nerves are possibly being twinged.

    do you have much swelling?

    i had carpal tunnel syndrome in previous pregnancies that causes tingling in your arm and fingers.

    I had a heavy, achy (right) arm for about 10 hours the night before last. I was using my iPad, but turned it off straight away, then changed positions several times. DH gave it a good rub too, but nothing helped. I ended up lying awake half the night...finally went away about 4:30 am. Felt a bit better if I bent my elbow...I'm 21 and a bit weeks along.
