Hi I had this with my last pregnancy I was around 12 weeks & I woke up like it one morning! It was so hard to even walk witch sounds crazy as it way my arm but its amazing wot muscles u use & dont realise it! I went to the doctor she sed wen pregnant ur muscles r more flexible so its easier to pull one she told me to use deep heat on it & a  hot water bottle & take paracetamol it worked! Was gone in a couple of day's :-) just keep heat on it :-)
