I think it's due to acidity...Try digene.

Hey Jeevitha , rib pains are commonly seen post 31-32nd week because of the following reasons - 1) Excessive heartburns 2) the growing belly pressing on the ribs above 3) heavy breasts or wrong slouching posture . Try to walk before and after meals . Sit upright after meals for atleast 30 mins . Try to sit in a relaxed position on the bed and practice breathing exercises and slight stretches to relieve the pain . Figure out what foods are causing heartburn and what foods heal you . Wear a good support bra. While sleeping make sure you cushion yourself in the sides by a roll of towel placed vertically by the body . Hope this helps .
