I'm 5 ft 3.  When I was pregnant with my daughter my ribs hurt really bad!  Before pregnancy (that time)  I was 115 lbs, so I wasn't that large...  Maybe that has something to do with it, as there isn't as much growing room in our bodies.

I would still watch this closely & keep reporting the pain.  it seems a bit early to be having this.

hmmm... I'm not sure....

are you a small / thin person?  Maybe it is just all the streaching of things?

I would keep complaining.  get other opinions.
