Re: does anyone elses ribs hurt?

  • Yup around 28 weeks I started getting rib pain. It's your uterus moving up and baby pushing around.

  • Constantly! The skin is swollen and tender to the touch. If LO is really pressing against my ribs I feel a burning sensation until he eases up. I have had this for at least a month.

    I have noticed that either a warm bath or an ice pack helps. I guess LO doesn't like the temperature change and moves a bit lower.

  • My ribs are KILLING me, and I'm not even in 3rd tri yet!!  I started hurting around 23 weeks; sometimes it feels like someone is turning a crank to spread my ribcage apart.  Very painful.  I'm pretty much always sore, and every now and then LO decides to kick me in my already-hurting ribs.

  • Mine do really bad, but only if I sit too long right now.  Which stinks at work, depending on what department I'm in.  Leaning forward to look in a microscope all day can be a killer!  I go home feeling bruised in my midsection.

  • I am definitely feeling the sore ribs! They feel very bruised and I have 'hot spots' right where my bra band is, and it is quite painful. I put an ice pack on the area last night, and it did help quite a bit.
