| Discomfort: | I feel like my heart beat is really strong, it doesn't feel like it is racing or beating really slow, it just seems like a harder beat. I know that sounds stranger. It happens more when I am stressed or when I take a walk. |

| Discomfort: | aching ribs, probably caused by uterus pushing against ribs |
| Treatment or advice: | No treatment. The discomfort lasts for a day or so, then goes away for a while before it returns. |

| 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: | 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: | I have been having a sharp pain in my left chest for a couple of days. I noticed it after doing some general cleaning...so I am guessing that I might have pulled something. It is constant and will not let up. It really hurts when I breathe, talk, cough, everything. I have tried a heating pad, tylenol, rest..help! |

| Discomfort: | It usually only happens when I lay on the left side but can also happen when I am just sitting too. It feels like a burning sensation in my rib right under my left breast and it doesnt happen to the side at all. |
| Treatment or advice: | I brought it up to my doctor and they said it may just be all my organs being pushed up but it is very uncomfortable. |

| Discomfort: | The whole area across the upper part of the stomach(where the top of your uterus is) and right below the breasts. It's a constant stinging and aching pain that never really goes away. starts to sting especially after slouching for a long period of time and when arching your back you get a stretching and stinging pain all the way across. |
| Treatment or advice: | I just try to keep a good posture most of the time. it helps relieve some of the pain- Not ALL but some. dont really rub on it. I've realized that I rubbed the area so much that I have kind of lost feeling in the area. lol |

| Treatment or advice: | My husband put an ice pack on it and that actually worked until I got my body heat back! |

| Discomfort: | For some reason this month, my breasts seem to not appreciate my bra. My bra isnt tight, I dont get hot in it either, but for some reason I started to itch quite a bit underneath my boob. I take showers and my bras are clean, Ive even tried different types of lotions and creams to put under there, but it seems there is a `rash` or something developing there. It itches so much. |

| Discomfort: | I have like this `buzzing` feeling under my left breast...feels like I have literally swallowed a bee :-) It's like a tiny constant vibration and the area feels bruised and sore when you touch it. You can't see anything from the outside and it's mainly when I sit up or slouch. It's very uncomfortable |

| Discomfort: | I get a pressure or pain in the left rib cage when I bear down to have a BM. It almost feels like a rib might snap if I push to hard. |
| Treatment or advice: | I have to shift to the right while sitting on the potty to strech out enough for the pain to stop. |

| Discomfort: | I have a sharp pain in my chest below my breast. It feels worse when I am sitting and a bit relieved when I lie down or stand up. My doctor says that my rib is not moving (the muscles and ligaments around it are not stretching), but everything else is growing and moving. |
| Treatment or advice: | I find lying down on my back or standing up and moving help it. I also find yoga (stretching) and getting out walking or jogging really help relieve the pain. |

| Discomfort: | Slight cramping at times. Mostly a tingley numb feeling, often when laying on that side. |
| Treatment or advice: | Laying on the opposite side of the pain. Laying on the same side but twisting the upper body on to the back and wedging a bit of blanket or pillow under the side of the breast and ribcage area. Keeping the area streched out is helpful. |

| Seriousness: | Unbearable |
| 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. |
