I'm around 24 weeks and this just started today.  My ribs hurt like crazy, like there's a tight band around my chest just under my breasts and it's just S-Q-U-E-E-Z-I-N-G the breath out of me.  I'm not comfortable in any position at all.  What is going on?  Anyone BTDT?  Is it something to worry about?  Is it possible that this is just heartburn??  I had a lot of heartburn/indigestion during the last few months of my last pregnancy, but I don't remember pain in my ribs like this.  Papaya extract is not helping.  Other ideas?  Suggestions?
