38 weeks with rib pain?
Hey folks! Has anyone had this happen to them before?
Yesterday when sitting on the couch I had a big sneeze and felt a sharp pain in my lower left ribs. It brought tears to my eyes 😥. It was pretty sore when moving around, but not the worst thing ever.
A few hours later I went to bed and baby decided to direct their evening kickboxing class right at the sore spot... I was in extreme pain all evening and really struggled to get comfortable. Had a hard time physically getting out of bed to pee due to the pain. It's still pretty sharp when taking a deep breath, and I'm praying to God that baby stays away from there.
I have an OB appointment on Thursday and will see what he thinks then, but in the meantime perhaps you have some solutions or tricks to get comfortable? I'm quite short with a very short torso, perhaps this has messed up my ribs as baby is running out of space? I can't imagine another 2-3 weeks of this pain if it's something I'm just gonna have to deal with till baby comes.
