I have a tiny seed sized lump on top of my rib cage, under my breast. it hurts when pressed on. i am pregnant (first trimester), should i be concern?

Tender "lump": What you describe may not be related to pregnancy or to anything causing concern. This "lump" is probably a sebaceous cyst which you have noticed (basically a sweat gland which is blocked). This is not dangerous, but ask your OB provider to make certain.
