Baby B is in ribs!

I swear, my baby B seems to be headed in the wrong direction! She keeps scooting up higher into my ribs verses head down and dropping. My husband and I joke that she has a terrible sence of direction and will always be the kid who gets lost in stores, must have GPS, etc.
Meanwhile her sister is locked and loaded head down and very low.
Now, I've heard stories of dislocated ribs by baby, but please tell me this is all just urban legions. The way this girl is up there, I fear this is where I am headed!
Edit: I'm 33 weeks... Only gettin bigger!

    B was transverse actually stuck in my ribs at delivery. I would put a cold pack at my ribs for a few second and he would move down slightly away from the cold. He would always go back though.

    Hang in there as I can be very painful!

  • My DD was WAY up in my ribs. Thankfully (or not) she was right on a nerve and left that whole right side of my torso numb. My OB said I would have been in so much pain if it hadn't been for the way she was pushing on it. Indifferent

    FWIW DS stayed locked and loaded until birth but my DD flipped and flipped and flipped some more right up until birth. 

    Good luck to you!

  • I could have written this exact post!  I'm 34wks and Baby B has his head lodged so far up in my ribs that I've joked he is trying to get to the boobs. It's painful all day long.  The only reprieve I've had was about 2 weeks ago when he flipped the correct way for awhile.  Then his but was in my ribs but it wasn't nearly as bad.  I just keep telling myself it's just a couple more weeks and then my body will be mine again!
