Could it be costochondritis?
Is it possible that rib flaring during pregnancy could still be the cause of pain along the anterior margin of the lower ribs - even 3 years postnally? The pain occurs sporadically during spinal flexion - ie. while tieing shoes or some ab work.

Pregnancy as universally known alters the spinal aligment and therefore the thoracic vertebral blocks also.Thus altered stress in the rib articulation during the gestation might pop out new complications in the rib cage anteriorly as mentioned by you.
