Numb fingers!

Hi everyone,

I'm brand new to the guitar and have been playing for only a couple of weeks. I'm finding that the tips of my fingers are constantly numb!!! I don't play much because of the numbness and I don't feel like I'm pushing really hard. Maybe it's because my fingers are small?

Should I get my guitar restrung with lighter gauge strings? Does that mean that they are looser or softer or thinner??

Will this make a difference or is just a matter of time and I'll regain sensation in my poor fingers!

Thanks for any suggestions!
