aches,pains?

Hi

Anybody got rib pain?  I have had a pain round my ribs on the right for a week, it changes place and is in in my back as well.  the internet says it could be my gallbladder, but by all accounts that is really painfull and this is more a dull nagging pain.  I am wondering whether the weight of my boobs is causing the rib pain because I was big chested to begin with and now they must weigh about a stone altogether. I also have pressure pains in the pelvis, heartburn loads and the tiredness is horrendous.   I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself and probably a bit anxious about everything and considering I'm only 11 wks it's seems to early for all of this.  This will be my fifth pregnancy, so maybe that accounts for things all starting a bit early but anyone going through the same or similar, your thoughts appreciated?!!

thanks, nice to know I'm not alone, I was starting to worry!  I meant to answer about your heartrate for baby, that doesn't seem high to me, but then I'm not a doc, just going on my past pregnancies and mine being up in that number!  Try not to worry, the slightest thing they say though, sends me into a panic.  If I could just shake this coma state I'm in I know I would look at things better... roll on next trimester!  Take care.

Mandy~ My ribs have been hurting as well, I am short so I really think it is where my guts inside are shifting and making room for baby. I don't have a long torso so it all has to fit somewhere, and yes with it being your 5th, your body knows the routine and might be getting a jump start, this is my 3rd, So I feel like things are starting real early for me too. The fatigue will somewhat subside in a few weeks, we are making the placenta right now and it is a big job! Once that is formed it takes alot of the stress off of our bodies to support the baby! Hang in there!
