Read this if you have pain in ribs and shoulder blades!

Just thought it would be handy to inform women of the possible cause of their pain, which could help trying to handle and treat it.. Turns out this is more common than people realise, as there isn't much about the condition in pregnant women online.

Hope this helps some Ladies

I have this in my ribs. I had it with DS2 SS well. It is the worst at night, or if I wear a bra for too long. It is a really bad ache. I usually say it feels like my bones are rubbing together in the middle of my rib cage. Went away after ds1 was born but it really hinders my sleep. People try to say that it is the babys foot in my ribs but I've always know it wasnt that. It helps to hug something like a pillow. It relieves the pressure. Thanks for the article. It is always good to now your not crazy! Lol

Youre welcome ladies. Took me about 2 hours of googling the pains i was feeling and this blog described it perfectly. There were loads of other things that it may have been, but i didnt have any of the other symptoms.
This was one of the only sites that gives information to pregnant women.

Glad i could help
