Arm numbness/shortness of breath

Hi Mommas,
I'm 33 weeks, 2 days pregnant with my 2nd baby. I'm experiencing some numbness in my left arm and some shortness of breath. Anyone else experience this? I called my Gyno and she said she would like me to see a G.P. But I'm having difficulty finding one that will take me right now and I have my OBGYN Appt tomorrow morning. I just don't know if I should go to the ER or am I looking too into this?

    Not sure about the arm numbness, but the shortness of breath is par for the course as far as pregnancy goes.

    I would say listen to your doctor and make an appointment with your GP. No need to go to the ER unless she seemed more concerned IMO.

    I also have the shortness of breath, which I believe is normal as the baby grows and takes up all of your lung space. Not too sure about the arm numbness, though, so I would also suggest calling someone and seeing if you can be seen today.

    I have shortness of breath a lot and I do tend to get a little arm tingling/numbness if I am on my phone too much or if I sleep on it weird. So I guess it depends how numb your arm is and how often. If it started swelling I would definitely get it checked out right away.
