What Causes Lower Abdominal Pain During Pregnancy?

I m 14 weeks pregnant and I ve been having sharp pains in my lower abdomin, but only my right side is swollen and today when I woke up I noticed that my rib cage hurt as if I were sore from doing sit ups. Is this normal? I m only about 3 months so I dont have a belly at all yet.

mild shooting pain which disappears in few seconds is normla in pregnancy. if you are having good apetite, no nausea or vomiting & no yellowish discolouration of skin so you need not worry for rib pain, but if it persistes you should visit a doctor.
