pain under my left breast

Does anyone else get horrible pains on the upper left side of your torso like under your left breast, I have trouble sleeping because of it and wondering if I'm the only one, I'd comes thought the day, I think it maybe where my stomach is now but it is so uncomfortable. I'm 28 weeks.

It could be acid reflux,  especially since you said its happening at night. And it could also be your gallbladder although you would have pain during the day as well. When I get pain there I take zantac (its for acid reflux) and it goes away. I did however start getting a numbing sensation there and asked my doctor yesterday about it. She told me that on the ultrasound it showed baby's butt is right there and that he is making me feel numb from the pressure. Either way consult your doctor better safe than sorry.

I don't recall which side your gall bladder is on but the pain COULD be gall stones, I'd mention it to your doctor if it's on the same side as your GB.

I just put a post about this. I'm 33 weeks along and I have a horrible sharp pain under my right breast...I can't stand it. I cant bend down or change sides while sleeping. But people have said its because the baby has no more room so your ribs have to expand... Uhhhhh...can't wait to give birth.
