Pressure

I keep feeling pressure on my rib cage. Every time there is pressure I my rib cage I have a hard time breathing. I'm pretty sure its not my son since he isn't moving around when this happens. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

This jst started about a week or so for me. I'm 35+4 today and today I feel like crap. Maybe I'm jst getting sick or something.I have my appointment in 4 days. so i'll jst ask my midwife and she wat she says. I jst hope it goes away before I go into labor.

I have this issue as well, and i struggle to breath from it. My husband noticed i had a huge knot on my back where i hurt the most by my rib, and he thinks i have a rib out of place. So I'm going to the chiropractor this afternoon to get back inline.

I don't think its him. Usually the only time his foot is up near or in my rib cage is when he is kicking and he kicks really hard. I might have to ask my midwife on tuesday when i go in for my appointment.

OMG this so happened to me in my first pregnancy. Are you sure its not babys foot? With me it was always her foot and she wasn't hyper it would be from her just stretching
