Habit of having my hand/arm on my bump while i sleep on my left side at 33wks pregnant. can i hurt bub? my mum tells me it can be too heavy for baby?

No: Not now or later until delivery. with ultrasound you see hardly any movement placing an arm over the abdomen while pregnant. If you push down with the transducer you can see some movement but no fetal compression. Stop worrying and be comfy
