There are some stretches you can do that will get the babys foot out your ribs. The one i do has worked really good i wish i know about the stretches with my firstborn.

Mine started at about 30 weeks... At first it wasn't bad but the last couple days he's been kicking hard! I assume it will only get worse

With my first pregnancy she actually cracked my rib! I had to wear some band thing. And with this one she's gotten her foot stuck a few times!:/
