Baby bruised my ribs

I woke up this morning with the worst pain I’ve ever felt. My ribs have been aching for days, but this was extreme. I called 111 (non-emergency medical advice in the UK) and they sent me an ambulance. Baby was fine and all my organs were functioning normally so they sent me for an x-ray. All seems fine. No, decision in the end is that I have rib trauma from my 30w baby girl kicking me in the ribs. She’s already causing such mischief!

At least I got to visit my hospital’s maternity ward and have a little preview of what’ll be happening in 10 weeks time.

I didn’t know this could happen! Turns out it’s quite common! Anyone else in the same boat?
