i am 26 weeks and i noticed that at the top of my belly, near my ribs i have a numb spot, its not completely numb i do still have some feeling there but it is significantly less sensative than the rest of my belly, and now my ribs are hurting really badly, has this happened to anyone else? what could cause the numbness?

You are the only other woman I ever heard of that had this problem. When I was pregnant with my first I noticed that there was alot of pressure and pain up near the top of my belly under my ribcage. I just figured it it was normal until it started to go numb, it is still numb to this day..if you lightly pinch the skin I can't feel it and even if you pinch me hard it's more of a slight tingle..hard to describe. My doctor did an ultrasound of the area to make sure it was not my gallbladder or anything serious and then told me it was just damaged nerves from the pregnancy. The pain/pressure will go away after delivery but the numbness might never completley go away.

Hello sumgirl... I am 34 weeks and have been having the same problem for the last few weeks. Especially at night I feel it even more.

I had this issue whn I was pg w/ my dd. It started later in pg (maybe around 28w). Very strnage feeling, but I was told it's nothing to worry about. It's just nerves being compressed and skin stretching.
