Sore ribs

Hi there!

I’m now 36 weeks pregnant and for the past few days, I’ve been having a lot of pain in my ribs. Every day the pain gets worse and spreads.

I also have pain in my back next to my shoulder blade. I can barely lie on my side or back, even though I really need to rest. It hurts even when I’m sitting. I think it’s because the baby is so high up now...

Does anyone else experience this and maybe have some tips to relieve the pain?

    Hi hi! So relatable, but there's not much you can do about it besides resting well. Is the little one probably kicking your ribs?

    Hmmm, yeah, I’m afraid of that too... Yeah, indeed, I regularly feel kicking against my ribs.

    Hi hi
    I'm 28+5 weeks and since last night I've also been having pain in my ribs on the right side. It's quite a sharp pain. I was wondering if it's the baby kicking against it. But luckily I'm not the only one experiencing this. It's reassuring. Fortunately, we'll get something beautiful in return.
