tearing pain in sternum area 33 weeks pregnant.?

in how to cure bad breath

Does anyone know what it could be? It’s kind of to the right slightly under my sternum area. The other day i was lying down and sneezed and it felt so bad i could barely breath. I’ve had it for probably the last 2 months and every time i ask the doctor he says its probably just the organs being squished. But i just don’t see how a really painful tearing feeling can be my organs being squished AND perfectly normal. It’s pretty much constant but usually its mild enough to ignore though other times it’s excruciating. ALSO it started off as no pain but all the skin on top of the area was completely numb. Now it goes numb occasionally and is accompanied by pain. I dunno i just don’t think it’s a normal part of pregnancy.

I know even if i do find out there probably wont be a ‘cure’ but i just want to know if anyone else has had this and what their doctor said?

you might have a broken sternum, my sternum broke while i was in labour, it was stressed during pregnancy because i have a small torso.((do you??))….. there isn’t much you can do but wait till it heals itself.

i had this,but earlier in my pregnancy.
it is the way everything is getting squished.you should also cut back on carbs a little and sugary stuff..this helped me a lot.only if you eat a lot of that stuff.invest in Tums antacid tablets also.those did wonders!
