horrible pain in my ribs...

okay so for the past few days i've been getting this unbearable pain in my ribs and the top of my tummy. This goes on for hours. The doc says its the babies feet. But i've been throwing up because of it, 1st time in my entire pregnancy and i throw up at 8months? My belly got way smaller, and i cant take the pain. Does any1 get this, and know wat to do to relieve this pain..I havent been to work in almost 2weeks already, im so drained..please help

Annabelle gets her toes stuck inbetween my ribs, and the only thing that helps is to lean back as far as I can and then put a hot washcloth on them. She tends to keep away from extreme temps. But if you do put anything hot on your ribs, just make sure it's not like really hot.

I got that, it's like a shock in the bottom of your ribcage right? To temporarily relieve it, I'd push down on the spot that was hurting, thats all you really can do. =/

Hmmm.. Your tummy got smaller?? Never heard of that! But I get the same feeling and it is that baby kicking. I have thrown up a couple times right after I eat cuz he kicks my stomach so hard. The only thing that helped me was to to stretch with my hands above my head until the pain went away.... but it has only helped a couple times...

Sometimes I am in lots of pain too with her toes in my ribs... Esp because she keeps them in the same spot day after day! I push her feet away sometimes and lay on my oposite side. (her feet are in my left ribcage so I lay on my right side).

Maybe you got kicked real good and got a brused rib

ive gotten pains in my upper belly that made me throw up 3 or 4 times since ive been pregnant. im pretty much convinced that its a galbladder attack and am going to get THAT looked at as soon as the little one makes his way into the world. you might want to look into it too. just a thought!

yea, i've tried taking a hot shower, n tryin to move her with the shower head... it hurts to lay on the side, only thing that will work maybe if she feels sympathetic towards me is to lay on my back..But isnt it dangerous to sleep on ur back? I only have a few more weeks to go, but omg i cant even describe the pressure n pain..

PUSH BACK! lol Sometimes after a little bit of a fight she will actualy move her feet away from my ribs.

RIght now she isnt pushing on my ribs or anything but my left rib cage is still sore... Not much you can do about..


Bubble baths are nice though!

U know when i paged the doc on duty a nite ago, he said for me to go to labor n delivery to get evaluated, something to do with my galbladder..But i've been to labor n delivery 2wice last week and they dont do anything for me but, take a bunch of blood, have me laying in a uncomfortable bed for 6hrs only to tell me to go home..Im hoping my insurance covers these emergency visits..

I get this too, and sometimes when the pain starts and I move it feels like my rib pops! OMG the pain lol

It could be baby in there doinga home makeover lol My doctor says it can be either the baby kicking ribs and bruising them, pushing on them, or just your ribs expanding to accomidate bub!! Either way, it seems its always the side Bub prefers to lay, with me its the right! Takes your breathe away eh?
