Pain under ribs - should I be worried?

I'm 28 wks preg.

I have been getting uncomfortable pains under and around the bottom of my left rib for the past week or so.

Anyone else had something similar?

Haev just freaked myself out by consulting Dr Google and finding that it could be a sign of pre-eclampsia (am also rather fat although losing weight).

Help?

I had pain under my right rib but as bloods, blood presume and pee tests were all good the midwife ruled out liver and said it was baby kicking upwards.

Just mention it to her next your in :)

I had this when my ds was breech the midwife said some part of him was scrunched up there! He was huge too so probably didn't have much room

I thought of baby but I'm only 28 weeks! Have another scan on Thursday and will speak to the docs then.

thanks all!
