Really worried...is this symptom normal at 4 wks?
I am 4 wks and 1 day pregnant...I had the usual cramping (like AF yesterday and on/off for past few days and lower back pain) today those have both subsided almost completely. Now my upper arms (bicep area) between my shoulder blades and my neck are really sore. Sometimes the soreness goes down the sides of back too. Like a feeling after you have done a long strenuous workout with weights. Is this normal at 4 wks? This is my second pregnancy and I don't remember having this before and I'm really worried because everything I look up about neck and shoulder pain during pregnancy talks about ectopic pregnancy. I have no cramping today and have had zero bleeding at all not even a spot. Please I need advice and piece of mind here. I think I've worried myself to the point of making the pain worse. Thanks

Thank you all for your responses. I'm feeling much better today after sitting with heating pad last night. Still an achey soreness throughout lower and upper back and arms and neck area but really believe it is just my body adjusted to hormones and changes. As I do not have any other symptoms such as cramping, bleeding, headache, nausea, fever, chills, etc.... Feel great otherwise. First trimester is definitely nerve wracking! My muscles are just fatigued and sore guess that's my body trying to adjust. I will contact dr mon of it gets worse or does not go away by then! Otherwise trying to relax and not over do it! I also have a 3.5 year old to keep up with this go around!
