Pre-eclampsia what does the rub pain feel like?

[Bc102]

Hiya I’m currently 37 weeks pregnant and last couple of days I’ve been having pain below my right rib that comes and goes depending on positions I’m in but have put it down to baby being there as thats what the pain feels like, is the baby digging in.

I went for a growth scan Wednesday and protein was in my urine but they didn’t say anything to me for what it could be and blood pressure was fine

after Googling about protein in wee and seeing this about pre eclampsia I’m now worried, is it a coincidence? Is the pain I’m having normal or is that what pre eclampsia pain feels like

thankyou x

While it might not be entirely helpful, I had pre-eclampsia with both my kids. I didn't have right sided rib pain with my first, but did with my second. The rib pain with the second was because baby was frank breech and kicking into them.

I did mention it to the midwives when they asked if I had any pain, and they seemed to indicate it would be a little lower down and tender to touch in the soft part of your abdomen on the right. I hope an actual medical professional will be along to explain much better, and/or correct me if I'm wrong.

Did they send your urine off for analysis?
