Pain in ribs?

Question

I'm a first time mom and I've been having sharp pains on the right side of my ribs. I'm 17 weeks along. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Answer

If I sit for too long I get pains in my ribs. If I get up and walk around for a few minutes they go away.

Answer

My aunt works in the hospital i go to and she said its the baby moving around , sometimes they can be in uncomfortable places

Answer

I don't think it's the baby moving, since it's so small right now and located much lower. I think it's ligament pain or pain from the rib age expanding and organs shifting around. My ribs often hurt when my lower back hurts. Exercise and stretching helps me.
