Do your ribs ever rub together?

When you lean to the side, do your lower ribs sometimes rub together? I know my lower ribs sometimes rub together. Normal?
 
I feel an uncomfortable squeezing sensation, but I'm not sure if I would even be able to tell if my ribs were touching. How do you know it's the ribs rubbing together rather than the general discomfort of compressing the side of your body?
 
No. My lower rib muscles (?? possibly upper abs?) have a proclivity for cramping though. If I'm lying on my back and get up I always have to be careful or they'll cramp up. It's just like a charlie horse, only at my sternum 😕
 
When I make ribs (usually baby back) and I spread a little too much rub on one rack, I'll rub them against the other ribs.
 
Yes, our ribs often rub together. This is pretty normal when doing missionary.

Wait.. huh?
 
Found my answer. They're called floating ribs, the last two in the series can rub together since they are not bound to the other ribs. I am 5'10 and 170lbs
