Your probably okay. When I sit kinda compressed like I can feel my uterus in my ribs. Also when I move too suddenly I tend to pull muscles, i'm guessing because of the extra weight. I get those minor pains too. I think that's just growing pains.
Ur uterus isnt up to ur ribs its just above ur belly button.. however that could have be be ligament pain
I've had rib pain since I've been able to feel baby (around 20 weeks). My doc said it was just the baby moving around but you might have pinched a nerve since it went away after you moved your leg. If it happens again, call your doc for sure.
I've also had pains in my lower tummy but not near my belt button. Any concerns with pain should be brought to your doctors attention. My tummy pain turned out to be my female parts getting bigger.
Mom2b819, my baby can reach my ribs already. Ive mentioned it with my OBGYN a week ago. He said i'm small so he doesnt doubt it and to lay down if its hurting. My friend also felt her baby girl in her ribs at 21 weeks it depends on your body.
Thank you other ladies by the way, you're very kind for replying :) i will bring it up at my week 24-25 appointment. I'm going on 23 weeks very soon. Also, thank you carebearmomma i didnt think of a pinched nerve! That would make sense an i will call my ob if it reoccures :(
I think my belly button may be semi sore from stretching. My belly buttons basically flat as of yesterday lol.. an ive always had a sensitive belly button
