Hi I’m currently 28 +6 and currently have a stitch like pain near my ribs on my right side. Is this just ligament pain?

Hi, I am only 18 weeks gone and I have had a similar pain to this on and off. It's scary as I didn't have it with my other two pregnancies. I have had scans and everything is fine, I was told it was just the stretching. I find just going to bed helps as by morning it's gone again

Yeah I messaged my midwife and they said it was just ligament pain just took me by surprise

This is one of the symptoms my midwife said to watch out for as a sign of potential preeclampsia.

Call the maternity triage and ask their advice

Braxton hicks? I had what felt like period pain my whole pregnancy. Definitely get it checked, but try to relax too.
