I was wondering if any ladies here have ever broken a rib before becoming pregnant. I fractured a rib in my left side about 2 years ago. I am currently 24 weeks pregnant and I am absolutely freaking out that the pain is going to be really bad in weeks and months to come. It gets a little uncomfortable at times now so I really worry when he is all up in my ribs that I'll be unbearable. A fractured rib was the worst pain I've ever felt and I'm petrified to have to deal with that again as the belly grows.
