Soo im 6 weeks post partum and my right rib feels a little tender and has done for a few weeks especially when laying on that side in bed and i am going to mention it at my 6 week check at the doctors but has anybody else experienced this?

Hi OP! I’m currently 11w PP and I had a pain in my left rib for weeks after giving birth, which was more painful/ sore when I lay on that side too. Thankfully it disappeared I would say around week 7 or 8pp. Never got it checked out because it was in the same spot baby’s feet would push and kick and I just put it down to soreness on the inside from baby’s awkward position. Could this be the same for you?
Definitely mention it at your doctors check! Hope it goes away soon for you x
