shoulder pain

I'm 18 weeks pregnant and have major pain on the right side of my back. Starts at my shoulder and goes about half way down. Any one know what this could be ? And what I can do for it?

Pulled muscle, pinched nerve, you slept on it funny, you hit it into something. The possibility of whats causing it isn't something we can really say for sure. But as far as to take away the pain tylenol is whats said to be safe during pregnancy. If its night where u are call your doc in the morning if the pain doesn't go away by tomorrow.
