    wierd feeling!!!!!

    Hi i just thought i would share this, to see if you girls know what this is. I keep experiences this weird twitching or muscle spasm just under my ribs on one side. Im 24 weeks now, i thought it might be braxton hicks, but im not sure as this is my 1st pregnancy, it doesnt feel tight or anything, it just spasms?????
    Any ideas or has anyone else had this too.

    thanks

    Sounds more like your bub might be kicking you there. BH is usually lower down and comes with tightening.

    I occassionally get the same thing on my left side just under my boob. I will be interested to see what others say because I'm not sure that it is kicking - I get kicks down and above my belly button but this feels different - it is literally a spasm.

    I have been getting very sore ribs and high in the back - especially if I sleep with too many pillows or sit in the same spot for very long. I thought that maybe the twitching had something to do with that and the changes in muscle and skin. I havent been worried about it though but seeing as you saked the question I'll have to keep an eye on peoples thoughts

    I've just recently started to feel the movements under my ribs. Sometimes it's a definite kick but mostly it is just like a pressure like bubs is pushing up against them from the inside iykwim. It makes me feel like I need to stretch out or sit up tall. What I usually do is gently push down on the top of my belly just under my boobs and bubs tends to move out of the way.

    Hi Georgette,

    I get those too but often down low - it does feel like a spasm, but maybe it is the baby just moving a lot or twisting or something!

    It's an odd feeling, I'd agree with you, for some reason I get it on my lower right side mostly, and I seem to be getting it a lot, lately every day!
