Constant foot in the rib!

Ugh! I think she is officially out of room in there.
I have this constant feeling of pressure in my right rib cage.
It actually makes me squirm a bit at times- like I'm ticklish or something!
Last sono the tech got a pic of her foot poised to kick me in that ribcage- so I know that's how she is set up in there.
It's just so bizzare and nothing I do will make her move- I really think there is no more room.

Sitting for too long is no good- I need to stand up and stretch my arms over head to try and make more room.
For a smaller than average baby she certainly FEELS huge!

Re: Constant foot in the rib!

I hate that!!!

It's soooo uncomfortable!!!!!!!

Try kneeling on the floor on all fours. Sometimes that gets the baby out. Most of the time not though.

Re: Constant foot in the rib!

I know exactly what you mean!!!
I have been dealing with the foot in the rib cage for a few weeks.
At the last sono the tech also confirmed the foot in the rib cage with a picture!!!! The baby had both feet pushed right up against my right rib!!!
It is getting really uncomfortable to sit because I also feel like he/she gets even more cramped and tries to stretch out even more.
I can not even imagine if this kid was big!!!!!

Re: Constant foot in the rib!

isnt it wonderful like trying to sit up to feel like youre gunna snap a rib cause shes up in there

Re: Constant foot in the rib!

I have that too! But I still have 6w left, too much time for the baby to get big and really start hurting!

definitely try the rocking back and forth on all fours and also on all fours, arch and then curve your back (like a cat) that might get her to shift! works for me, I do it every night but in the morning s/he is there again LOL

Re: Constant foot in the rib!

i have the same problem but my baby is 2 weeks ahead so i know shes big! my ribs feel sore

Re: Constant foot in the rib!

This is my problem. I have seven weeks more he keeps his foot in my right rib. I can imagine its only going to get more painful as he grows
