Ouch! Shoulder pain....

BeetleLinz1125

So for about the past week I have been having an awful time with my shoulders...at first I thought it was because of how I layed on them when I slept, but I've been sleeping on my back (I know it's bad, but I cannot sleep on my side with my shoulders hurting) and it's just not getting any better.  I literally cannot lift my arms up or move them...let alone pick anything up.

I know that there is a lot more relaxin in the body, but could it affect my shoulders too?  It's extremely painful and now that it's been going on for a week or more, I know it's not because I have overexerted myself...

Is anyone else experiencing this?

YES! my shoulders started acting up after my ribs came out of place. It is the shoulder blade area in the back and I think it is from the pressure of my dislocated ribs. But in answer to your question the relaxin affacts every joint in your body. It is alot easier to displace a joint or pull a muscle when you are pregnant.
