going numb!

The right side of my body is going numb. My whole right leg is numb. Under breast and it wraps around my back. This is only happening on my right side. I've been to see a doctor and I got loads of blood tests done today, will have my results on friday. If they are Inconclusive then I have to see a neurologist. Just wanting to know if anyone else has experienced this? I'm 23 weeks pregnant

Hi ladies got my results back today and unfortunately I've been referred to a neurologist. It's not baby lying on a nerve, which I was hoping it was cause now there's something else wrong! Bloods were fine apart from iron was extremely low and have to take iron tablets the rest of my pregnancy. Ugh, as long as my baby is OK then I guess I'm grateful

I was hoping it was due to my sleeping habits too but unfortunately it lasts all day and all night.

Not all around but when I'm sleeping my right side is painfully numb. The baby might be lying on a nerve or things could be squished and hitting nerves.
