Lower rib pain, 29 weeks

Hi! I’m 29 weeks pregnant with my first and I’ve been experiencing a constant, dull ache in my lower ribs. It hurts a lot to sneeze! Other things like bending over or rolling out of bed are uncomfortable too. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Almost 29 weeks and haven't felt it yet, but my last pregnancy was terrible. I was sure it should be all black and blue in the outside as bad as it felt. It got better after a few weeks when baby dropped. But until then or it changes position, not a whole lot to do.

  • Fun fact, your rib cage actually “flares” or spreads to make room for baby. Which might be where that dull ache is from. As for the rolling out of bed. Yes! I’m at 28 weeks and it’s starting to get hard to move. I feel so much larger with this pregnancy I’m scared what I’ll look like at full term.
