I got so mad at my husband last time I was pregnant because my son was jabbing me in the ribs and I was gripping and he laughed at me I started poking him in the rib cage screaming "is this funny to you". It's awful I'm sorry!

Yes your baby can fracture, bruise and even break a rib or two. My oldest fractured a few ribs and bruised the hell out of them. It's just one of those wonderful "joys" of pregnancy. Lol.
