My ribs feel funny

[Yuba_River]

My DS was born almost a year ago, and as my body has returned to its new normal, I've noticed that the ribs on my right side feel "funny"--not painful, but like they're out of joint or something. Has anyone experienced this or have any idea what might be going on? I did feel like there was a foot or a knee right there the whole second half of my pregnancy... Also, I carry DS on my left hip a lot, so maybe I'm compensating with my right side somehow? Any thoughts appreciated!

Hi there, you might try a chiropractor, ribs can definitely get out of alignment like the vertebrae of the spine can. I often got chiro adjustments for an out-of-place rib that caused sharp muscle pain right between my spine and shoulderblade. You said they feel out of joint - it could be your spine and/or hips...and holding the baby on the left side only could likely be a part of this too. Best of luck, maybe try a massage too??
