Does anyone have any suggestions for relieving rib pain? I'm carrying really high and my ribs are killing me.

Thanks!

Delivery. :giggle:

No, really - you can try stretching. Or seeing a chiropractor may really help.

I see a chiropractor for pre-exisisting back problems, but he can't do much about my ribs. :-( I had two dislocated ribs a while back and he was able to fix that, but I'm still in pain.

:roflmbo: !! Isn't that answer to all our problems?
my little one prefers my right side and rubs the same rib almost all day. She is still pretty mobile in there so I just keep changing positions till she does too.

I've had it with all three now. No relief other than delivery. DH said the other night I was wimpering in my sleep, so he woke me up in case I was having a bad dream. Nope, it was the rib pain. Weeeeeeee.

Aww! How sad.

I am getting to that super, uncomfy irritable stage as well. I must constantly move in my sleep. DH actually moved from the bed to the couch last night. He said he couldn't sleep because I was moving so much. Oh well. I sleep better with him out of the bed anyway. I can spread out! :giggle: (We have a king size, btw).

im just plain not sleeping it seems like anymore. i have to catch lil cat naps during the day. usually when i go to sleep she slides away from my ribs, but thats her favorite place to be as well. Ive found that if she is sticking her feet or butt in my back or ribs i can take a warm shower and that makes her move if im strategic. i will let the beads of the shower hit a little towards the middle of my belly and she will "follow" it and kick and bump at the water spray. that makes things a little easier. i also smooth/rub her butt down if she gets TOOOOO high which happens a few times a day...
