Limbs falling asleep...argh!

Whenever I put my weight on any of my limbs (arms, hands, feet, or legs) they fall asleep if I remain that way for 5 mins or more. I've never had this with my previous pregnancies (though I am overweight with this one and wasn't with the others). Does this spell trouble? I have my next appointment in about a week and a half. Plan on asking my midwife about it then unless you ladies think I should call her sooner? Opinions please.
I had pregnancy induced carpal tunnel with pregnancy #4 and not with any of the others. I found that sleeping in a wrist brace kept my arms from going numb while I slept. My hands would go numb while I drove if I held onto the steering wheel too tightly. As for other limbs, I never experienced anything out of the ordinary in that regard. I'd still mention it to your dr.
