Upper back ache and chest ache

I'm 28 weeks pregnant and for the last couple of days I've been experiencing awful upper back ache between my shoulder blades and in the centre of my ribs under my chest. It is definitely worse after eating, so I assume it is due to everything being squished.
Has anyone else had this? Any suggestions as to how to ease it - apart from forcing DH to massage me 24/7?!

I'm thinking of doing pregnancy pilates or yoga to help sort my posture out. It is so bloody uncomfortable!!

hello piggy have you checked this out at gp or mw? I would just to be sure is probably muscular but things like gallstones can also give this pain so best get it checked over.

Gutted that the pilates and yoga didn't work ohfraktious. I'm hoping baby engages early and this might ease the pain!
surf I haven't mentioned it to midwife yet but I'm at the hospital for my Anti-D injection on Tuesday so will mention it then.
Thanks ladies.
