Hi, I am 32 weeks pregnant. Lately I have been getting back pain between my shoulders and a weird pressure like pain in my ribs and tummy. I haven't experienced it yet, and it may just be normal. Anyone have advise, or ways too relieve some of the pressure feeling? Its very uncomfortable and I don't know how to make it better. :(

I'm also 32w1d & my OB said it was normal rib pain..? he's been head down, feet in my ribs for quite some time, but geeeezzzz he's LITERALLY pushing my ribs to the limit!!! lol I was in tears a couple of weeks ago, called labor & delivery at 2 a.m., had my fiancé freaking out.. they said as long as my baby boy was active, no contractions, etc. I was okay.. the only thing that helped/helps is drinking A LOT of water - I may pee every 10 minutes, but it's a lot better than that pain!

it is a strange feeling though.. I could/can still (every now & then) feel it in my chest/ribs/and it wraps around into my back.. I feel your pain! lol - you can definitely take tylenol, but I don't, will not, and can not swallow pills so I just deal with it.. "/ hope you feel better! we're almost there, good luck! ((:
