Painful ribs

I’m 13 weeks pregnant and am really struggling with painful ribs (both sides).

Has anyone else had a lot of rib pain? Is it normal in pregnancy!?

With my second I did. Can't remember when it started though. It's so painful so I sympathise. I had to give up wearing bras, even the stretchiest ones I owned, as everything just felt too tight. It is unfortunately normal in pregnancy. Hopefully it calms down a bit before long.

Thank you @Dyra that’s really reassuring.

It’s the first time I’ve got this far along, after 3 very sad losses so it’s easy to panic about what’s normal.
