Rib pain
Show your support
Yes - started yesterday and it's so uncomfortable Like towards my back, underneath - nothing fixes it - standing, sitting, lying down. Tried paracetamol and I'm convinced that's not working either
Me 😭😭 it feels painful to touch now because they feel so bruised. I’m off work with it because I can’t sit at my desk, I’m just having to lay in bed but only in certain positions otherwise it hurts. I’m 30+5 and it’s been going on for about 10 weeks now, hurts to go to the toilet because I can’t push 🙈
I have this exact thing too. Had it with my first daughter too. Only thing that helps is leaning the opposite was and pushing down a little on bump where I feel the pain.
I’ve got it! My baby is breached and their head is right under my left rib my midwife said it’s extremely normal/common. It hurt so badly 😮💨
I feel so much less alone ladies ❤️ it is CRIPPLING ME! So weird its just under 1 rib. I had a growth scan which showed the babies butt was lodged in there 😩 i hoping once the baby drops it might ease? But @Natalya not from your experience?!
I had inflamed ribs. Nothing really helped but less movement for a while if you can does bring the inflammation down a bit. I also helped myself with tiger palm on the infected area which seemed to help a bit and then also sleeping on the other side. To be honest the only thing that really made much of a difference was staying home/still and doing stretching exercises such as cat cow movement on all fours
With my little boy I had it right till he was born sadly😂 I remember I got to the point I just cried because no matter what position I was in, it was just painful
I’ve had it in both my pregnancies so far, I cannot lie it gets worse the bigger baby gets… it goes as soon as you give birth though. It was the main reason I told myself I’d never have a 2nd… but here I am😂
