| Seriousness: | Unbearable |
| Discomfort: | Severe pain between and around my ribs on the left hand side. Feels like the are being pried open... but my uterus hasn't reached my ribs yet! I've started to develop numbness around the ribs. Worse after eating and after sitting. |
| Treatment or advice: | Bed rest and loosen bra. Avoid sitting as much as possible. Avoid large meals. |

| Seriousness: | Unbearable |
| Discomfort: | A constant sharp stabbing, burning pain. |
| Treatment or advice: | I have been told so many things by so many doctors. They've even prescribed Zantax (acid reflux medication). The only relief is leaning back (recliner) and placing an ice pack on the area. |

| Discomfort: | Since week 18 I have had some unbearable pain under my ribs. But the pain in only on my left side. The Dr said it was from acid but this is not acid!! Still dealing with the pain at 27 weeks. Can't sleep anymore!!!! I have to sit in some funny positions to get any relief. I sleep until about 2 in my bed then go down stairs and sleep on the couch which helps a little. This is the only problem I have had my entire pregnancy. |

| Discomfort: | this is killin me i'm only 26 wks so i dont think its the babys feet as my womb is not that high up yet. The only way 2 make it better is to stand up and rub it. it gets really sore during the day as i'm a travel agent and am seated all day. |

| Seriousness: | Quite bad |
| Discomfort: | Sharp and achey pain on both sides of my ribs. It also occurs at the front and back at various times. Started at around 23 weeks and has been getting worse. It's even started waking me at night now. I lie on 1 side fall asleep for about half hour, them it gets bad enough to wake me so I turn over until it wakes me a short time later and so on... I suppose it'll be good practice for when the baby arrives! I guess I'd rate this quite bad to unbearable. |

| Discomfort: | The pain is unbearable. If i lay on my left side it feels like burning/cramping/or tightening. If it is pushed on i will feel this sensation right through to my shoulder blade. The pain will wake me and make it impossible sometimes to get comfortable. |

| Discomfort: | It started with me complaining of this spot going numb and burning on the inside - sporadic. Nothing I do would cause it. Now at almost 33 weeks it is constant and extremely painful. Not really numb anymore but very tender to the touch and hurts on the inside as well - mostly to the touch though. Ice does not really offer any relief and I am too scared to use heat b/c it feels inflamed on the inside. It is like a constant sunburn feeling or an open wound feeling - both inside and when anything touches the area. Bra, cotton, naked even hurts. Sleeping is awful - pain wakes me up and no position offers any relief. I am so miserable. Many women reporting it on the right side, mine was on the left side/center right below my breast. At times it doesn't hurt as bad and sometimes it hurts so bad I want to cry. |
| Treatment or advice: | Ice - helps for a very short period of time. Bringing it up to Dr in 2 days but do not expect any feedback. Sitting up while I sleep is the only thing that keeps me from waking up in tears. |
