I've had the same pain for weeks now and was worried about it. The only way to ease it is lay on my right side. My doctor said it cld be my gallbladder. Check to see if there is any foods that triggers it. If not he said it cld just be how the baby is positioned. But if it is ur gall bladder they can't so anything till baby is out. So ease it the best u can. BTW its not ur belly stretching.

I am 30 weeks along and 8 wreks ago I got a terrible pain in my upper righy side right below my ribs I thought it was the baby as well until I let it go till I wasnt even able to walk. I got to the er and was admitted and had to have an eamergency appendix removal. My appendix were a hair from rupturing and my being pregnant only made it worse they could not look at ky appendix in any way because of the baby.and all the test they done vome back negative for appendicitis I woulf go get .checked out if I were you especially if u have a fever or it gets worse.
