wet suit trouble

I am a realtively new swimmer. I do open water swims of 1-2 miles. My new wetsuit which fits me way better than my first one in that it is tighter, is giving me trouble. It seems to shift off my right arm and down. It then is wrinked at my elbow and tight on my shoulder. This is making my right arm really tired throughout my swim. I really try to pull it up into my armpit when I put it on but it wont stay. I find it is easier to swim without it because my shoulders are so much more free and loose. I am thinking of a sleeveless...is it normal to feel like the sleeves restrict your shoulder motion and make your arms heavy? Is it worth the time you save on the swim to be more tired?
