Hi all. I am 18 weeks this weekend but expecting triplets. I have rib pain on the right hand side, sort of under my right boob...it feels like stretching muscle/ribs being pushed down.
I googled it and it said this was common in 3rd trimester due to the uterus getting higher and pushing down on the ribs but as I am having multiples, my uterus is bigger at 17 weeks 5 days than obviously when only carrying one baby...
My uterus is a couple of inches above my tummy button, could this be why my ribs hurt?
If anyone has suffered, what can ease it?
Thanks
