I have had aching ribs for the past month. When I am standing it is fine but it really causes me grief when I am sitting down. I dont think it is because bubs is that big that he is pushing up on my ribs... I think it has more to do with me sitting down all day at my desk. I dont have the best posture anyway eek!
I find getting up for a walk to the toilet or to the water cooler every half hours makes it a little better. Or putting my arms up against the wall, above my head and breathing in.
I have had the same rib pain (not as bad though) but I have had the aching across my stomach. I first got it really badly when I was 28 weeks and had it constantly for 5 hours... in the end I thought enough was enough and called the hospital as it was starting to worry me. I went in and they monitored me and ended up putting it down to the muscles stretching! They gave me some pain relief and a sleeping tablet and sent me home. So from what you described it sounds the same as what I had.
