What Causes Indigestion And Discomfort Under Rib Cage During Pregnancy?
I m a second time pregnant 24 year old woman, in my 17th week. I ve had horrible indigestion for about two months now. Ever since I was throwing up every day, from morning sickness. After I eat anything it feels like there s a huge bubble underneath my rib cage. Also, constant bubbling on the right side of my stomach, below my ribs. Never painful, just super uncomfortable. Also, bubbling in my beck when I lay down. My BM s are fairly normal. Never constipated or diarrhea. When I do go, it s like I go throughout a whole day off and on. Very strange. Help!

Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic
Concerning your experience with indigestion and discomfort under your rib cage with associated air bubbles on the right side of your stomach in a 17 weeks index pregnancy I strongly believe this is due intra abdominal pressure generated from the pregnancy that is compressing your intestine
In view of this please take some antacids to alleviate the symptoms
I hope this helps Regards
