Hey

I'm 15 weeks pregnant and this morning I woke up and I feel like I've done a workout. My rib area feels tender like I've pulled a muscle or something! Has anyone else experienced this? I'm not in pain as such just feel like I've been gym which I deffo haven't haha! Could this be organs moving around? Any experience or help would be great 🙂

I've had really sharp rib pain at the side and round to the back of my ribs. I spoke to the midwife and she advised heat/paracetamol if needed. Apparently it's because the muscles aren't holding the ribs in place as everything relaxes so your ribs move. Hope it eases soon!

@Hall84 oh really?! It's so bizarre everything that happens just feels like somethings pushing on them or has been and they are sore. Thankyou I will definitely get some heat and that on it ☺️
