Rib and back pain

Post by Fed7281 »

Hi Ladies,

Hope you all are doing well.

I just had a quick question for you, is anyone else expirencing middle back pain and rib pain? It has been killing me for a few days now. My ribs feel like someone hit me on both sides of my rib cage and I have not been able to sleep. What is that about? The back pain I understand but the rib pain I dont get. The babies couldnt be that high already could they?

Any info would be great!

Thanks!

~Erin

hi Erin, I have been feeling that too. It started around 16-17 weeks for me, right when I started getting big. My pains are a little more to the right. I assumed things were getting pushed upward by my growing uterus. I took a look at an anatomy chart to see what exactly is under my right ribs and it appears to be my liver. :shock: must be getting pushed up in to my rib cage and lung. Very uncomfortable! ah well... only a few more months and it will all be forgotten. hang in there.

I am barely ahead of you both and I have had the same thing since week 16 or 17 as well. It had made sleeping almost impossible. Mine is more on my left side right under my breast. I just keep telling myself how lucky I am to have it! :? Glad to know I'm not alone with these silly aches and pains! Good luck girls!

Take care~
