What Causes Cramps Under Ribs During Pregnancy?

Hi I am 20 weeks pregnant today and for the past few days i have been experiencing cramping on my left side under my ribs and my lower abdomen. I was doing physical exercise a few days ago and thats when these pains started. I have also been feeling nauseous and have not had as much of an appetite.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
I read your query carefully.
As per details,
It is most probably due to the exercise you did.
I would advise you not to do strenous exercises during pregnancy.
You can do exercises but very light or just do walk .
Its muscular pain.
You should take simpe acetaminophen for pain.
You can use warm water bottle.
Take your healthy and balanced diet.
Continue with your Iron & Calcium supplements.

Hope so it will be helpful.
