(ok, my ribs) Reply Contact i never thought that expression would be true, esp before he's born! does anyone else have rib pain? it's so bad that i have a bruse right under my bra wire right above my rib. it's hurts to breathe and bend over and pull my arms over head! is this normal? or is my baby just practicing to the kick on his football team.

  Re: not born yet, and he's already a pain in my side! (ok, my ribs) Reply Contact  I have heard of babies having their foot or hand stuck in or near the rib cage area and that it is VERY painful.  How far along are you?  I know I get a pinching feeling that is not too pleasant when I bend too far and I am at 30 weeks.  And yes, the kicks can be a doozy-her favorite spot is right under my belly button!

(ok, my ribs) Reply Contact i'm 38 weeks, and his fav spot is right under my top rib, under my right breast, i wish that i could say that he only kicks me once a day or once an hour, but it's more like every 5 min. well enough to give me a permenant bruse for the last three months.

  Re: not born yet, and he's already a pain in my side! (ok, my ribs) Reply Contact I know exactly how you feel! From 24 weeks, this little one has decided to break out! Right ribs are agony, and I have permanent tenderness under the bust! Not sure which part is doing the hurting, but this baby better have boxing gloves or football boots on, or i'll be very disappointed! Try a rocking chair to ease the pain!

My little man loves to kick me in the ribs. I get red marks from where he kicks me so hard, and sometimes its really hard to where it knocks the wind out of me!
