Pregnancy Info HOME

I had to write one more time because I wanted to share something that has helped me since my entry only two days ago. I am 30 weeks pregnant and like you, was seriously suffering with the right rib pain...to the point of being unbearable, frightening and literally brought me to tears many times. After reading your entries it helped so much so that night I got a heating pad and ice packs to alternate use. I think it helped some...but to be honest, and at the risk of sounding "strange", I will say that what I really believe helped me the most was a very, very sincere prayer to God and Jesus Christ asking for healing relief...at least to allow me to move around because lying, sitting, and walking all were difficult. Believe it or not, the next day, the pain has subsided...not completely, but a HUGE difference. I had tried heating pads before but didn't really get relief. I only write again to offer the suggestion of a prayer request, if you haven't done so already, it may help you tremendously. It's certainly worth a try!! (Lastly, I don't know if all this pain is coming from the baby kicking the ribs simply because many of you have mentioned this type of pain in early pregnancy when the baby hasn't developed enough to kick or to push utereus as far as late pregnancy...all I know is it's real and be it hormonal changes, bone structure loosening, expanding utereus, etc.., I do hope we all can find some relief. Thanks for the opportunity to share and thank you God & Jesus for your healing energy.
