Today I have noticed that I am getting uncomfortable. My baby belly is now rubbing against my ribs and it is not comfortable at all. I cannot find a comfortable position and I am starting to feel miserable. Isn't it too soon to be feeling like this? I thought at 5'11" and having a long torso I wouldn't have to worry about stuff like this, especially at only 25 weeks.
Has anyone else dealt with this while pregnant? Any suggestions on what to do to get comfortable? Thanks, ladies!

I'm almost 24 weeks and also very uncomfortable, so just wanted to let you know you're not alone

I'm 27 weeks pregnant and I started feeling that way around 24-25 weeks also. I finally am able to get comfortable at night again, but I'm starting to fing it hard to breathe :(. I thinks it's her position in there, because it's not all the time, but it's def. an uncomfortable sensation. Good luck getting through the next trimester! You're not alone!

I'm 25 weeks as well and just started feeling uncomfortable. It's not to bad in the front (only when she lays sideways and stretches), but my back is killing me all the time. Good sleep is elusive unless the hubs has already left for work and I can add another pillow to the mix and stretch out.

Me too, at 5'0 and 22 weeks. To think, this is the "easy" part. Ooooh boy.
Good luck!

I'm 30 weeks and started feeling like that around 24-25 weeks. She LOVES to stick her feet under the one side of my ribs, makes for a fun time.

ugh. i'm 28 weeks now, and while i was uncomfy while awake since a few weeks back, now, i officially can't find a comfy position while i'm asleep.
while i'm awake, i'll push the area where he's bothering me and then stretch my torso. helped me a bit.

That sucks it seems like everyone starts to feel uncomfortable around the 25 week mark and it doesn't seem to get better :(. I am grateful things are going well during pregnancy, and I have to keep reminding myself that when I feel like crap. I am so ready for full-term! I want to meet our little man (and get my body back ;)).

Awww, that sucks. Have you tried any prenatal yoga? I always feel good after a good stretch.
I guess I'm lucky - I'm almost 29 weeks and I'm not experiencing any TYPICAL pregnancy discomfort; or maybe it's just masked by my existing back problems 8-/ Occasionally the little man will move up a little high and it gets hard to breath, but if I didn't have 2 herniated discs in my back I think I'd feel pretty normal still! The downside is with the back problems sometimes I can't even walk, sooooo, I'm not sure which is worse...
