I'm 31 weeks now and have been having rib pain for quite a while. Sometimes it's really unbearable. I can't even sleep because of it! Who else has this problem and what can you do about it?

    Hi Liesbeth,

    I had that too. In my case, it was because the baby was growing too much inward. I had a very modest bump.

    Resting a lot and not leaning too far forward helped me a bit. After that, it gradually got much better on its own.

    Good luck!

    Yes, I also have a little tummy, I've only gained 10 kg. When does it start to go down?

    Phew, it's been a while. I don't remember exactly, but I think the worst was after about 2 weeks.

    I'm no expert, but I do think it's important to take it easy. If your body tells you to.
