I'm 35 weeks and have a really annoying painful spot on top of the bump. I think the baby just kicks that spot a lot, and it's gotten irritated. It feels kind of like a blister, only inside, where I can't put a band-aid on it 
Has this happened to anyone? Any tips to make it hurt less? I've tried icing it, but that doesn't help much. Baby doesn't mind the ice, just wiggles out of the way, and then sticks her feet in the same spot when the ice is gone...

I had this in one or both of my pregnancies. I can’t remmeber now. I just had to leave it and not touch it. I didn’t get any relief. It wasn’t awful, just sore and felt weird.

@Mama Bird: is it under your right rib kind of? And get worse when you sit?

@Mrs. Goose: yeah, that's how it feels - not awful, just an annoyance!
@pachamama: it is on the right, but it's not my stomach or gallbladder or something. I had that with my first pregnancy, and it was higher up and got worse after eating. This seems to get worse when the baby starts stretching and her feet end up in this corner.

@Mama Bird: similar! I had this bad with #1 and now at 27 weeks it's starting again. Yowza! I read it could be the tendon around your liver up there or something. Mine felt like my underwire in my bra was burning! I carry very high. Only bad when I sat for long. Very annoying!

I had a burning feeling in a similar spot when I was pregnant with my son. I thought it might be nerve pain.

@pachamama: @MrsSCB: ahh maybe it's something like that! It does kind of feel like a loose underwire... hope it goes away soon!
