I never had that problem.  Instead I've always had problems leaning forward, like I do when I write...

I'm short, so I had to give birth for that to happen.  Now she still kicks and punches me there, just from the outside.

He moved down a few weeks ago and I had some relief, but now there are feet firmly planted in my ribcage constantly.  So much for that.

Mrs.Greg

Mine is still up there.    I think he/she has a foot or hand stuck!!  Or maybe he/she is holding on for dear life... everyone keeps telling me I'm carrying very high.

last week... see ticker...

I just went for a walk and kept pushing down, trying to get him out of my ribs.  Why can't he understand "please stay out of mommy's ribs"?  He just doesn't get it.    I feel your pain.

I don't think my boys every fully got out of my ribs, I used to dig my fingers under my ribcage to get their little feet out. Anabelle is so low that I almost wish she were in my ribs instead

in my life

She's still snuggling up to my ribs often.

my lungs don't have much room... lol. ahhh, the joys of pregnancy.

I apparently only make breech babies so I never have had to deal with feet in my ribs, which is nice I guess.  But I have a head under my ribs right now which when I lean over I feel like I"m squishing her head, but at least no kicks to the ribs.

Baby has dropped and I still get some good kicks to the ribs.

I lived 31 glorious weeks with no pressure on the ribs.  Those were the days.

stephelias

Her butt is firmly planted in my ribs. This just started in the past couple weeks and the discomfort is only getting worse...

blairsgirl

For the last month, I have one that loves to kick me in my rib right beneath my right boob.  And the other one is sitting so low, sometimes it feels like her foot is going to come through my vagina when she kicks.

Just in the last couple weeks... it's so fun isn't it?!

I've had the luck of having a transverse baby. So I have feet & hands in my ribs. And a baby laying sideways in my pelvis.

Sucks. 

kdiguise

I dropped early, but I still had feet in my ribs until I delivered!!

Adam'sGirl

Mine has stayed low the entire time, so far. I'm hoping he stays out of there the next 4 weeks.

Daisy22

Last week which was 35wks. I can now breath and his foot isn't stuck in my ribs anymore. It's nice.

WaitingForMyMiracle

I'm only about 5'4, so this puts me at a great disadvantage. Doc says he'll be in my ribs until birth.

Sometimes, he gets so far up there and kicks so hard that my right boob will actually bounce. This is DHs favorite part...

Idhreniel

31-32 weeks.  Now he's determined to separate my hips and spine.  It's not really an improvement.

Chrysallys

He's been so low the whole time he has never been in my ribs and for that I'm glad. Instead he feels like he's going to fall out all the time.
