Is it normal to get cramping but below your ribs, sharp like pains it's really hurting but not sure how I can help the cramps. Anyone else experienced this?

I'm also in my first trimester so unsure if this is normal as I'm only 10 weeks

Have you had a scan so far? Rib pain in pregnancy could be a sign of ectopic pregnancy or a UTI that has moved to kidneys. Could also just be nothing, but get in touch with EPU

@Snowflakes1122 I've had a early scan at 9 weeks and everything looked fine they said if it carry's on tomorrow I will deffo ring epu. Thankyou :)

I had what I thought was 'rib flare' (later than ten weeks so more likely to be the ribs stretching to accommodate the internal rearrangement) on the right, but looking back with 20/20 hindsight it was the onset of my gall bladder issues.

Have you had a urine test. Could be an infection...
