hi, i know that in the begining of pregnancy shoulder pain can indicate an ectopic pregnancy and major problems.
but i'm 35 weeks pregnant and for the past month or so i have had a very sore pain in my left shoulder, like around the shoulder blade area.
i was concered and saw a doctor who advised it just was a muscular pain and would go away but this was 3 weeks ago and the pain is still as bad if not worse.
i have my docs tomorrow again and i will ask about it but i was just wondering, if anyone else has experienced this, could it just be a nerve or something ?

Could be the baby is pushing on a nerve - try putting a cold compress on the baby to get it to move. If the pain reduces you are on the right track. The position of the baby can cause echo pains in other parts of the body especially if it is carrying to the back. The wash cloth will not hurt the baby or you and will cause the baby to reposition. Good Luck!

I experienced it during other complications. But everything turned out okay. I would bring this up to your doctor. It might also be nothing.
