Hey girls,
i'll be 27 weeks in 2 days and I was wondering, is it normal to be feelin lotsa pain in my ribs? Like i'll be sittin down and its near where my bra is (i thought it was my bar at first but then I figured out it wasnt) and my back only hurts on the right side very low and I get shootin pains down my right leg... This is normal right? Sorry its just some customer came thru my till today and told me its a sign of premature labor! Which freaked me out a lil but I dont think she knows what shes talkin about haha thanx girls!

I had a constant pain in my right rib when I was pregnant with amber, the doc said that it was a pulled muscle, sometimes it hurt alot and other times it was just uncomfortable, as for the shooting pains in your legs, your baby may be pinching a nerve, causing the shooting pain, with both my pregnancies it was so sudden and so sharp at times it would floor me, one minute id be standing fine, the next my legs would buckle and id be on the ground haugh laughing and half crying....... Its normal and will go away after the bub is born

That happems when the baby starts to put his or feet underneath yur ribs and starts to push. I used to get that with my son. Doctor said another 2 weeks or so and the baby would of have broken my rib and pushed it out of place.
