I'm 32 weeks and just in the last two hours I've developed really sharp, severe pain in the ribs on the right hand side only. It's linked the breathing - hurts particularly when I breathe in deeply.
I have a two year old who has been particularly uncooperative today so I've lifted and carried him a few times, I'm thinking I could have pulled something. However I am apparently at higher risk of preeclampsia. I have no other symptoms - swelling, headache, etc.
Can anyone who has had preeclampsia tell me if this is the sort of rib pain they mean or if it more likely to be a muscular injury?
I've been into maternity triage twice in the last week or two - once for reduced movement which turned out to be nothing, and again because I thought my waters had started to leak but they could find no evidence once I was there, so I'm really hesistant to ring again. I feel like I will be on a hypochondriac list somewhere if it's another false alarm!
