Sore hands

Tweet

I just started playing the other day. My sister got a keyboard, but I've taken much more interest in it than she has. I never EVER intended to play, I've always wanted to learn the guitar. But wow, this is amazing! This keyboard teaches you how to play, the keys light up, and it tells you which fingers to use. I've already learned two songs. So I was wondering if it's normal that my hands are sore. I've been playing for only a week, but they're still so extremely sore. When I play they hurt, both my fingers and my hand in general. I'm pretty sure this is normal, but I'm wondering how long it's going to last? I'm determined to learn how to play, but sore hands are so discouraging. =(
